| Remarks | I was coming to a stop light as I was seeing something shiny and spectating in the sky and I told my son, omg, what is that!? What is that? Something is falling and apart! He was like whoa, I don’t know. It disappeared out of sight so fast. And I told him I’ll have to look on social media to see if anyone else posted seeing something falling from the sky. And sure enough, I see a local news channel report a meteor sighting over the tri state! Sooooo cool now that we know what we saw. Wish we could have video’s |
