I was driving down Deming and it was really cool! Did anybody else see it?

Saw it out of the corner of my eye while traveling northbound on I-395, just past Plainfield Service Plaza. It was off to the north-west.

You probably did see one, they’re more common than you think and being in CT we’re lucky enough to see them more often than most Americans!

We saw it too near Fairfield!

Shooting stars happen frequently out here in Ellington when me and my girlfriend go for our walk to get our steps in

I was driving back to western Massachusetts on the Taconic from visiting family in NY, and my partner and I saw this fireball in the northwest sky. Pretty wild, bright white with a tail that reminded me of a crackling sparkler.

It was that tail that was so surprising to me. Even in the middle of a fairly well lit intersection I could see the bright red tail go through the sky.

Other side of the state saw it in the Eastern sky.
