Meteorite sails across Oregon Skies

[Idig4beer]

This morning at 5:30am ,a large fast streak of light came across the skies and people from Washington, Oregon, Idaho saw this.The FAA reported it was a meteorite.Don't know if it hit the ground, but may have some place in Idaho?? When it passed over Oregon,it was really bright and the sky lit up like a (transformer blowing up).Hope someone in Idaho finds pieces of it. Idig

I first thought it was that spy satalite coming down to take me out.

Maybe it was, and they want people to think it was only a meteorite.

Picked this up on another board:

Meteor seen, felt across wide swath of Pacific Northwest

SPOKANE (AP) — A meteor streaked through the sky over the Pacific Northwest and apparently landed in Eastern Washington early Tuesday.

A Horizon Airlines pilot reported seeing the meteorite hit earth with a flash and a burst of light near State Route 26 and the Lind-Hatton Road in the southeast corner of Adams County about 5:45 a.m. PST, said Mike Fergus, a Federal Aviation Administration spokesman in Seattle.
