    Hey, did anyone see the meteor about an hour or so ago? I was driving home from work and there was a bright flash of blue and green light. It seemed like it came from behind me and I thought a power transformer blew out. Turns out it was a meteor! I can't believe I missed it.

    I was laying on the couch watching TV, and saw what looked like lightning outside. I thought it was rather unusual to be seeing lightning in the winter, and today I learn what it was.

    Bright triple flash of light, thought it was lightening but there was no immediate thunder. Then thought it could be an explosion and went looking for any fires - then heard the rumble.

    I didn't see it, but I spent plenty of time In Iraq getting rocket attacks.

    Apparently someone found at least a piece of meteorite. Wild!
