A fireball in a twilight sky - 9.1.2018 at 08.10 Hyvinkää Observation number 69366

Visibility IV / V

Not visible

The fireball was green in tone and very large, he was short in relation to the ball. I would argue that it could even have fallen on the fields to the east of the train track because the phenomenon seemed so close.
