LargeRedJoe 1,638 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Nice! It may have exploded so it could have dropped some pieces. Was there confirmation of an impact? oh, never mind. https://edmontonjournal.com/news/local-news/edmonton-weather-waking-up-to-a-lot-of-wind-oh-and-a-meteor Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob_grill_apprentice 1,730 Posted February 23 Author Share Posted February 23 It impacted somewhere in Edmonton, on the news they were asking people to look out for particles but they didn’t confirm if it hit inside or just outside of city, But based on flash over my home, it can’t be too far away from south east side. daninpd 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SmallBBQr 788 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Crappy video from a camera I have in my front window (glare from streetlight reflecting) but a different angle... Clip (February 22 2021 at 623 AM).mp4 GrillnBrew, JeffieBoy and Rob_grill_apprentice 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob_grill_apprentice 1,730 Posted February 23 Author Share Posted February 23 My front camera didn’t pick up anything. Only back camera. If it had come on front side my camera would have picked it up in sky. My front camera can see sky while my back camera is trained just to be over the fence. That was how I was able to get Video for police that helped them catch catalytic converter thieves. JeffieBoy 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LargeRedJoe 1,638 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Some more on this from the American Meteor Society. https://www.amsmeteors.org/2021/02/bright-fireball-over-alberta-canada-on-february-22-2021/ Quote More than 400 reports from 3 Canadian Provinces and Montana (USA) The AMS received more than 400 reports so far about a morning fireball event that occurred over Alberta, Canada on February 22, 2021 around 6:23am MST (13:23 Universal Time). The AMS #2021-978 event was mainly seen from the Canadian province of Alberta, but was also visible from British Columbia, Saskatchewan, and Montana (USA). The computer generated trajectory from the list of current witnesses, indicates a short path just north of Edmonton, Alberta.
