NUFORC Sighting 107010

Occurred: 2014-02-07 17:30 Local
Reported: 2014-02-08 11:08 Pacific
Duration: 2-3 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Hamilton, MT, USA

Shape: Oval

green org zoomed over Hamilton while still daylight.

2/7/14, tween 5:30 and 6 PM, Was on phone, glanced out the window, and saw a green orb above to the west, zoom further west, and disappear behind tree top.

Conditions: Was still light out. Cloud cover, with light blue sky showing through clouds in some areas. Snow on the ground, 16 degree F temp.

Orb was below clouds, moving so fast, I was only able to say "Whoa! what's that?" and it was gone. The tree it disappeared behind is close enough (100ft?), and tall enough (fir), I couldn't tell if the orb continued over the mountain range, or if it came down on the mountain range. It was about 4 inches in diameter at that distance, fluorescent, or sparkly green, with maybe a slight trail but nothing significant registered in that 2 to 3 seconds. Think it was flying lower than the jets do, but higher than local small aircraft.

Would like to know if anyone else saw this?
