Occurred : 9/3/2016 23:55 (Entered as : 09/03/16 23:55) Reported: 9/3/2016 12:09:55 AM 00:09 Posted: 9/9/2016 Location: Portland, OR Shape: Fireball Duration: 3 seconds Characteristics: The object left a trail
At approx 11:55 pm, I observed in the western sky a large green fireball, with a strange oblong shape to it, traveling northward, at a fast declination. I am only a couple miles from i5 corridor, and I imagine anyone traveling southward would have had a perfect oncoming view. It flared across the sky, very large and bright. I did not hear a bang, or any sirens minutes later. Reporting for clarity.
