Taurid Meteor Fireball

My meteor capture camera caught this Taurid Meteor Fireball nearly straight overhead at 1020PM CT. Anyone else see it?

Also, a reminder that the Leonid Meteor Shower peaks on November 17th. There is a possibility of a good outburst of meteors even though the most favored locations for the outburst appear to be Asia.

  1. it was about 10pm (?) we were sitting outside Sat nite, the 7th and saw it too, I guess this is what we saw. A fiery “ball” of blue green –a streak with a tail… in the western sky. but what we saw went from the sky downwards.
