There sure seems to be a lot of this going on lately. Very strange days indeed.
Ping...;)
Meteorites and sonic booms from entering the atmosphere?
Armageddon?
again? this is AT LEAST the 4th such story this last month
There was the one in Canada filmed by a police cruiser at night, and then another one in canada (I think) and then last week one along the coast and now this
That, or with the proliferation of the Internet as well as the 24 hour news cycle, we are just hearing about it more. It may be the pattern hasn't changed in the events, only in the reporting.
Errant NK missles ;)
Can't put anything past Sky and Telescope. Probably.
Nah, just space refrigerators. No problem.
Fireball in the Night Sky Over Virginia Beach
This appears to be mainly an Eastern VA, MD, and NC phenomena but reports started come in fast and furious to the NWS office in Wakefield last night around 9:45pm. Witnesses reported seeing a bright flash in the sky and a loud boom like a sonic boom or earthquake seconds after seeing the bright light.
At first inspection of reports, I think a good guess would be a large meteor that exploded before impact with the earth. Most of the time meteors burn out without any sound. But some large meteors can get heated to such a degree that they literally explode, sometimes causing a huge noise.

The National Weather Service is NOT investigating this. (who is?) They did take many phone calls though. Unless some security camera footage in the Tidewater area shows something, this may go down as one big mystery!
NBC 12 Reporter Laura Geller is working on this story. Look for her reports in the day ahead on NBC12 and NBC12.com
like I said it is Kooky and Strange...
But so is this Fireball Activity....
No. It’s not per se the reporting.
Folks in major areas of increase have noticed that
BEFORE it was one way with one level of frequency
NOW
AFTER, it is a much DIFFERENT, HIGHER RATE OF FREQUENCY.
About DOUBLE a year ago nation wide/world wide.
SOMETHING IS going on.
God’s warning shots across our bows prehaps!?

Strange objects in the sky on Friday night...

Feburary 13th’s Kentucky Fireball!
Reports have been coming in about a large bright fireball centered over Kentucky. Additional sightings have been made in Ohio, West Virginia and Tennessee. Interestingly, a sighting of a fireball was made in Ontario, Canada at nearly the same time. This sighting is probably too far away to be the same object and was probably of a different but still spectacular fireball.
