Found your site/link via Google.
Was standing in kitchen at 3:00am, looking-out window to west, about 20-30 degrees above horizon when just right of where I was looking (if I were to draw a line from my location on a map to where 'IT' appeared, the line would point very close towards Vandenberg AFB), BUT, what I saw also suddenly made me remember that I saw the same sort of flash earlier, on evening of 22nd!
DESCRIPTION: First,& most notably, IT did not move! as bright as lightning, but the color of an incandescant bulb, yellow-orange flame, or visible, warm-light! IT was NOT in the upper atmosphere! IT also appeared as a round 'pulse' in the sky perhaps the size of a fist held up & out! Oh, & not a cloud anywhere in the sky right now!
So I was now putting the flash I'd seen earlier with this, as both were the same & standing INSIDE at my sliding glass door, scanning the sky w-my eyes, when:
At about 10-15 minutes after the 3:00am flash, my patio & east-facing garage wall "lit-up" with TWO (2) consecutive 'pulses' of the same light, each 'pulse' lasting maybe a half-second each! Oh, & BTW, when I was scanning the sky between the two sightings, I DID see a 'shooting-star' streak across he sky & any similarities is 0 percent
SOMETHING IS MOST DEFINATELY 'FLASHING' IN THE SKY IN THE PAST FEW DAYS, & I DON'T BELIEVE THEY'RE ORIGINATING IN SPACE, UNLESS THEY ARE SOME KIND-OF SUPER-NOVA EXPLOSIONS OR SOMETHING, BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT WOULD FIT THE DESCRIPTION OF WHAT I HAVE NOW SEEN 4 TIMES IN A 24-HOUR PERIOD!

Fort Collins, CO bright white light 6:50 pm 22FEB2011
I saw a bright white light slowly trailing over the tree tops while driving eastbound on Prospect Road at the intersection of Shields in Fort Collins on Tuesday around 6:50 PM. It looked like a bottle rocket firecracker that never sparked at the end, but the light was very bright and slow. It was dusk and I could see clouds above it. It looked very close and low. I wish it would have looked colorful for me too, but the white was awesome! - Alicia

Greeley, CO sighting 5:45pm 2-22-11
Driving east bound on Hwy 34 towards Greeley, CO, between County road 17 and 19. At around 5:45 pm on 02/22/11 I saw a small bright white light pass from my upper left windshield corner down to the lower right. It seemed to burn out as it approached the horizon. Seemed small and close by as if it touched down only a few hundred yards away in the field to the southeast of me. No sign of smoke or dust off the ground. Very bright and white considering it was not quite sunset.

Windsor, Colorado at 5:50 pm
From Windsor, Colorado at 5:50 pm driving east on Highway 74 (Harmony Road) and County Road 15 saw a white light from the left corner of my windshield, passed in front of my car and had a blue/white tail, flashed and then seemed to burn out before hitting the ground. Glad to know that I wasn't the only one that saw this!

Boulder, CO

From downtown Boulder, I saw the green/blue tail last for about 3 seconds and then fizzle out into orange sparks. My mom saw it at the same time and it was almost unbeleiveable until we looked to each other for confirmation. From where I was, the tail was about 3-4 inches long in the sky...it must have been huge! It was still light out just about to turn to night at around 5:50pm. Truly amazing!

I was walking east towards my vehicle when I saw a bright green/blue streak originate from the northeast and terminate in the south east. Its trajectory was heading downward at about a 30 degree angle. It burned for 2-3 seconds and then went out.

Imperial, Nebraska Hugh Fireball 5:50 pm 22FEB2011
I was driving west from Imperial, NE, just across the Colorado state line and saw the huge fireball. It started high in the sky and fell southwards at approximately 10 minutes before 6:00 p.m. It was absolutely beautiful! Interesting that I saw it from the east, looking west and everyone else who reports this saw it looking to the east from the front range.

Pensacola, Florida Very Large Green Fireball 

~7:00 pm CST 21?FEB2011
I know in the last few days you have seen several large green fireballs, but none have been reported for Florida, near Pensacola. I wanted to let you know that shortly before 7:00 pm CST I saw a very large green fireball cross the sky. I was driving home - towards (30.550369,-87.0244 ) and was at approximately (30.550694,-87.034056) when I spotted the fireball. I am sorry I'm not able to give you the precise time, but I hope that helps with some of your tracking. Have a lovely evening.

Netherlands / France Bright Meteor Fireball ~21:05pm 20FEB2011

Netherlands Noord-Holland. Bright Meteor Fireball ~21:05 20FEB2011 

Feb 21 2011, 9:59 PM

Guest671 (guest):meteor sight Netherlands Noord-Holland. 20 February around 21:05pm. Bright large fireball that fell apart in about 2-4 seconds. It was very excited to be part of it.

Thank you!


Update!
Just got news that there is one all-sky that did get it: station EN 95 Benningbroek in the northwest of the country operated by Jos Nijland captured it. It is low on the horizon there, not a real spectacular picture imo. Lots of brightness variation visible along the trail.
It is low south-southwest in Eridanus on the image, suggesting appearance over the Belgian coast/Northern French coast/Northern Channel area.
There really should be British, Belgian or French observations if it was clear there.
- Marco
----
All I can say about it at the moment is that the Dutch all-sky camera's did not
capture it because of cloud cover on the active stations. While some parts of
the Netherlands were clear that night, several areas had cloud cover (it was
clouded here in Leiden for example). That is rather unfortunate.

I was driving at a quarter to nine approximatly, to Nunspeet and five minutes before this place i saw a huge fireball in the sky. At first i was shocked en than i saw the gigantic tail and thought "this must be a meteor". It fell into little pieces when it came in contact with the earth`s atmosphere. It was very spooky and at the same time very special to see.

Meteorite/Fireball La Ciotat France 18 february 2011 (email)
Approx 18h45 Friday 18 fevrier we saw a meteorite/fireball going across the sky from a south/south east direction heading west. It seemed very large and long and quite low and was orange/yellow with some blue at the mass (front). we saw it for approx 20 seconds only as there are large hills behind us which obstructed our view of its flight. Very unfortunately we did not have time to capture on camera but it was really quite amazing!
Hope this information is of use to you.

Sorry, I didn't record the time and didn't have time to photograph but yesterday evening, maybe close to the time a fireball was reported by someone in Perpignan (although I think it was later, closer to 7 pm) I saw a large meteorite enter the atmosphere west of Biot, just north of Antibes, travelling I'd guess north west and break into two large fragments and many
smaller, glowing orange at their leading margins accompanied by a bright flash of green light. Regards, John
Thank you John!


Meteorite sighting France
On Friday 18th early evening I happened to glance out of my window in Collioure, which looks directly out to the Pyrenees, and was very lucky to see a low flying oblong object, with sparking lights at the front, pass at speed between two mountains. The whole thing lasted about 5 seconds. Good to hear that others also witnessed this wonderful sight.

This big ball was green mixed with red in front and white and yellow streak at the back.
It's seems to me that there was little ball vanishing behind the first big one.

Chicago Meteor Fireball ~9:10 pm CST 17FEB2011

Chicago, Illinois "vivid neon green flash"!
Meteorite 2-17-2011(Chicago)
I also saw this. Was about 9:15pm CST I live on the 41st floor on the corner of Monroe St/Michigan ave. My view is east southeast over the lake. I was looking out at the moon shining brightly above Adler Planetarium when I saw a vivid neon green flash over Monroe harbor. From my angle, the meteorite shot straight down toward the lake and disappeared in a matter of 2-3 seconds. Was incredible! - Patricia Dillman.
Thank you Patricia for the email!


Hi. I'm from Downers Grove, IL. I witnessed the green fireball looking out my window at the moon on February 17th. It was a little to the left of the moon. It was green for a second or two, then turned yellow or orange as it was falling closer. I was looking to the east out of my window. I'm about 15 minutes west of Chicago. It was a nice sight to witness. ~Billy Snow

It was looking up at about 75 degrees (from southern horizon) and saw it go straight toward Chicago (due east), but saw it head down, and burn out at about 45 degrees. I would say that it was about traveling about 15 degrees south of 0 degrees being straight above me.The time was about 9:10 - 9:15 PM CST on Feb 17, 2011, I think.

Dear Hunter,
Thursday the 17th was unusually warm, so me and my friend Randy went for a bike ride along the lakeshore bike path. We stopped at the tip if Belmont harbor, and while observing the moon we both noticed a bright greenish white light falling from the sky right under the moon, then it disappeared over the lake. It was as if the moon had dripped something into lake michigan. -Cooper
