It was so quick and so beautiful. There was a group around me but I'm the only one who saw it! The power went out in our area suddenly about 15-20 minutes prior, we had gathered in a community area and were looking at power line post that had been smoking prior. I was still looking at the post and lines when I saw the meteor shoot by in the distance behind it. So crazy!
