This second meteorite was found in a Waterbury home Thursday, according to a press release.
This object was not seen or heard as it fell, but Dr. Stefan Nicolescu, mineralogy collections manager at the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History, said in the release that he believes "it is highly likely the Waterbury meteorite is related to the April 19 fall in Wolcott."
The Waterbury meteorite is about 4 inches long and weighs 1.6 pounds. It had the same type of dark crust, magnetism, and interior color as the Wolcott meteorite.
Nicolescu said the museum hopes to confirm whether or not the meteorites are related with further testing.
Some blog members noticed a connection between those discoveries and their location, saying that their names start with "w", so, I'll quote them:

> Aeneas:
Interesting that she mentioned at the very end of the broadcast, that the three meteorites that have hit houses, all were in towns that started with W. My thought was of the Cassiopean star constellation....W. Symbolic of what the C's have been talking about?

"Weston (1807) > Wethersfield (1971 and 1982) > Wolcott (2013)
Connecticut leads to a connection. (But if they keep falling it may not be a W town next time.) I find the TV report decent; next time people hear a loud boom they might know what it is."

There's another "W" for you, my friend.
