Around 15 years ago i was driving across a small bridge in Dedham MA crossing the Charles River and this CRAZY fireball literally screamed across the front of my car.
Thank god my GF at the time was with me to back the story up.
Went looking for it the next day with a bud but never found it, prob landed in the river.
Looked and seemed like something out of a disaster flick....

Hmm, I bet some meteorite hunters would be very interested if you can still remember exactly where you were and where meteor was in the sky when you saw it and which direction it was going, etc. They can be pretty valuable.

These guys.
"If you happen to see one of these memorable events, we would ask that you report it here to the American Meteor Society, remembering as many details as possible. This will include things such as brightness, length across the sky, color, and duration (how long did it last), it is most helpful of the observer will mentally note the beginning and end points of the fireball with regard to background star constellations, or compass direction and angular elevation above the horizon."
