Eyewitness Report-
September 13th, 2014 - 8"20 pm Pacific
I was just getting up from my chair facing a big window, to look outside and I face the Burrard Inlet and Simon Fraser University from the north side....and I looked southwest to west. I saw a very bright white tennis ball size glow, as white as the moon, (maybe 1/60th of the moon in size....I tried to imagine 15 circles in one quarter of the moon.....after a while for an example...but it seemed even bigger). It came from the south east, but I noticed it as it was centre, straight in front of me to the southwest, It had a wide tail and it went from east to west.....between the Burnaby Mtn. and Capital Hill in a canyon to it's northwest.....in which Burnaby and Vancouver are beyond it directly. I watched to see if there was going to be an explosion as it seemed very low to the mountain....and very close. It took about almost 5 seconds (full seconds....ie: 1+ 2+, etc.), not too fast, but apparently it couldn't have been a comet, because they stay for days.... although that is what it looked like. I heard no sound. I had no camera. If anyone living in houses on the water in Port Moody's north side was outside, they might have seen it. If it was that high up, I imagine others may have noted it as well.- Janet B.

September 13th, 2014 roughly 8:30 pm
Looking north on the west coast of oregon object resembling a star descending quickly east to west. Bright white then red/white color to it as speed increased. Size increased based on light. It left a long tail. Died quick behind the tree line of my vison. Less than 2 minutes after, 4 helicopters lingering. First came from direct north to south, large white light on it. Saw around 8 or 9 total. Law enforcement helicopters as well. They flew at 500 ft, while assumed news/other helicopters flew around 1000 feet. Skys were busy for the next hour. Anyone else see anything? - Nick Walker

Sidney, BC, Canada / Enumclaw, Washington Bolide Meteor Fireball 15NOV2011

Sidney, BC, Canada Meteor 19:50 15NOV2011
We saw a fireball speed across the sky in a S to S/E direction. In the direction of the ocean and Sidney Spit. It was bright orange and red and sped low across the sky. -Michael F. Thank you Michael!

Abbotsford, British Columbia Canada Meteor 7:40 pm PST 15NOV2011
I saw a big fireball fall to the earth at about 7:40pm it looked like it was a burning plane for a second it was so big!! Looked like it would have touched down just on the US border;it would have landed near Washington US border it was orange and white, i was in South Langley on 248th Street when i saw it ...robyn  Thank you Robyn!

Victoria, BC Canada Meteor 7:38 PST 15NOV2011
At 7:38 pm on Tuesday, November 15th, I watched a large whitish blue fireball cross the sky almost horizontally from north west to south east. It lasted about 5 seconds and then completely disappeared. At first it looked like a large shining satellite and then grew larger and brighter like a welder's torch. The size of the light before it disappeared was as big as a streetlight from about 300 feet. It was beautiful, astonishing and strange all at once. We thought it may have been space junk burning up.-Pauline James  Thank you Pauline!

Enumclaw, Washington Fireball Meteor ~7:55 pm PST 15NOV2011
Saw the fireball last night, Nov. 15, 2011 at about 7:55pm. It was huge and VERY close! The colors were greens, blues, oranges, white, reds and a purple color; and the tail was the same colors and was almost as wide as the fireball itself. It was headed in a southeasterly direction. I couldn't hear anything but every single dog around was barking - they must have been able to hear something. A friend Facebooked me and said she saw it over Richland, Washington as well.  We live in Enumclaw, Washington (just outside Seattle) and I saw a HUGE fireball with a long tail shooting across the sky in a southeasterly direction. It was awesome and a bit scary, way too close! I've never seen anything like it! I'm so excited about seeing it - glad I was outside at the right time! Does anyone know where it hit?
I saw something similar back in 1989 while living in Sun Valley, Idaho. It wasn't this big, or close though. AWESOME!!!!-Dee Ann  Thank you Dee Ann!

BC and Saskatchewan, Canada Meteor 7JUN2011 -- MBIQ Meteor Event Trigger

B.C. and Saskatchewan, Canada Meteor 7JUN2011 -- MBIQ Meteor Event Trigger


Saskatoon, SK, Canada between 10:40pm and 10:42pm Central Standard time.
I think I just saw a meteor in Saskatoon, SK, Canada between 10:40pm and 10:42pm Central Standard time. I was driving on Whiteswan drive, and in the North-East direction of the sky I saw a bright light, as bright as an LED light, looked like it could have just been the bulb of a tall lamp in the sky and I thought to myself 'I don't remember that lamp being there.' I watched it as I drove for atleast 30 seconds and as I got closer to it and it got a bit bigger and brighter, I watched it dissolve into the atmosphere little by little within about 4 seconds and it was gone. I pulled my car to the side of the road to see if maybe that bright light could have gotten hidden behind clouds (sounds unlikely) and I didn't see any clouds, it was clear sky where I had seen it. I was stunned. I don't know much about star stuff or if it was a meteor but would love to know if that was possible, or if other people saw it to.
Thank you, and get back to me if you can! -Amanda

Langley, BC Meteor  9:45pm 7JUN2011
Last night (July 07 2011) around 9:45pm I was driving down 200th in Langley, BC when I saw a large bright flaming ball with a black smoke trail behind it headed for the ground. It was fairly close to the ground before it decinigrated and stopped flaming. It was really crazy! It lasted about 30 seconds. Its location was west of 200th Street. The color was like a bright orange/yellow with black smoke behind it...like a tail.
I thought maybe it would be on the late night news or something but I can't find anything about it anywhere.
I guess no one else saw it? Was it a meteorite? If not, what could it of been?
