Wow superb. I wish I can also be a part of this type of event. Hope for the luck coming soon.
To be honest I am not sure of the exact date (or time, but it was sometime in the last month..
I was sitting on the porch outside with a friend, facing South/South-East, when a bright green/blue ball of light appeared just to the right of my direct front view, only just above roof-high and travelling at a medium-fast speed from rite to left with a slight decent (225 degrees). Sorry I cannot be more specific, I don't have the best visual memory. But I do remember that it was quite spectacular and gave me quite a start when it first appeared. And while I know very little about these things I remember commenting that it looked as though it might have entered the atmosphere and seemed quite close..
