This will be short. A little after 8:00 last night this flew right over my house:
As the videos show, it got bright as day for a second, followed a few seconds later by a loud boom. The dog went nuts barking while we scratched our heads trying to figure out what it could have been. Since we were indoors and didn’t actually see it, we had no idea what it was. All we saw was the bright flash that lit everything up, and we heard the loud boom.
It wasn’t till this morning that I learned it was a meteor, estimated to be about 2 meters across and weighing a ton. Then I saw the track that went directly over my house (Blue arrow in the inset below).
I was kind of bummed as I had just taken the dog out for her evening bio break and came in like five minutes before it happened. I would have had a front row seat. Oh well, probably be another one tonight...
