Bright meteor to the southwest about 45 degrees. Lasted a good 4-5 seconds. Beautiful but creepy to watch.

Sorry, it happened too fast to record but looked similar to this.

Just in case, I was wearing a white robe and chanting weird shite with some strangers at Leah Remini‘s house.

False alarm. You may all go back to bed.

Not a heads up. I was wondering if anyone else here also saw it.

I just watched Greenland. Safe to say I’m pretty PTSD’d with meteor shite for a few days.

I was in my car when I saw it. Maybe a second or two and it was gone.

Hopefully, it was O kicking Bo Pelini out of his coaching office and shooting his shitty defensive plans into space.

How was it? I need a disaster movie to get the yucky Christmas movies out of my system.

It was refreshingly depressing. Made me appreciate the fact that life isn’t in fact about to end due to a planet killing asteroid or comet. Not a typical Gerard Butler movie either.

Those are impressive. I saw one years ago. It was as slower moving than the one in the clip and it had. Huge tail. Bright red/orange. The one I saw was a fireball. It was in the middle of a pasture on a clear night. You could watch it fade out into the distance. As I said, it was very impressive.

I saw it as well. Was in my truck driving and wasn’t sure at first hat it was. Thought it may have been some kind of reflection from streetlights or something from my windows at first or otherwise a meteor but reading this confirms what I saw
