The meteor fireball appears bright blue in this video (until 4 second mark).
Within the last week in California, there have been several reports of meteor fireball activity seen from Lake Tahoe and San Diego was rocked by a loud boom and shaking which was not reported as an earthquake by USGS.
These 'mystery booms' appear to be occurring with increasing frequency around the world. Not all of them can be attributed to 'sonic booms' related to military aircraft activity. A very small sample from the SOTT archives:
- The mystery boom that shook northeast British Columbia was probably a fireball says astronomer
- 'Ear-splitting' boom rattles North Carolina homes - the source a growing mystery
- Thunder? Mystery boom jolts awake residents of Tauranga, New Zealand
- Overhead explosions? Loud booms in Delmarva and Chincoteague, Maryland still a mystery
- Source of loud boom that shook houses a mystery in Dayton, Ohio
Comment: Another bright meteor fireball lit up the skies over Utah earlier today. Wayne Frunein, who captured the celestial event on his home door camera said, "Suddenly got really bright and then we saw a streak across the sky. It was bright white at first and then it burst into many colors. It was really beautiful. It was spectacular."
