Driving south on rt 218 King George, VA.. I saw a bright white flash that turned into a green streak then broke apart, lasting 1 to 2 seconds in the southern sky. It was heading straight down. This happened at about 3:27 am on 12/22/11. I think this was a meteor but not for sure. Please let me know what you think about it. -John Gedney Thank you John! You saw a meteor; please file a report on this site. Thank you!
