British Columbia Fireball – Sept 4, 2017

According to the American Meteor Society (www.amsmeteors.org) on September 4, 2017 at about 10:14, our small region had exceptional front row seats to an amazing light and sound show not normally seen. They report that they received hundreds of reports of a fireball event seen above BC. It was primarily seen from BC but also seen from Alberta, Saskatchewan, Washington, Idaho and Montana.

According to their latest estimated trajectory, “The fireball travelled in a southeast to northwest direction, entering the atmosphere near Boswell and terminating near Meadow Creek.” It is astounding that despite that narrow trajectory, the sound and light were seen from thousands of kilometres around.

Hundreds of people took to social media to report their sightings and experiences. Videos, photos and excited experiences abound. https://alfred.camera/tv/Hy0V73iK-
