Check out this INCREDIBLE video of the meteor this morning as viewed from a Lisle, IL police car dash cam! Thanks to Lisle PD for sharing!
Outside the city, people reported seeing the meteor in Wisconsin, Kentucky and even Ontario, Canada, among other spot
another person said they saw the meteor and it was "beautiful."

This is a work night for most of us here in DuPage Co Il
that’s 4 relatively large ones this year.
so that sounds like increasing activity to me
there was the huge one in Russia (that was like a 3Kiloton bomb, and broke windows miles away)
Then there was another one that same day that flew past from the south
Then this year there was these 4 now.
Next year 8? Then 16? in galactic scale, we could be entering the edges of a cloud of material.
I have seen enough evidence to convince me that the world had civilizations BEFORE the ones we know about starting 10,000 years ago.
Maybe the entire earth population gets wiped out every so often.
US???
Us: used by a speaker to refer to himself or herself and one or more other people as the object of a verb or preposition
Bush's fault.
Obviously, and more taxes will solve the problem. ;-)
Trump’s secret weapon to clean up Chicago? Cylinders are falling all over the city...
Did it land somewhere, or burn up. If it landed, where?
Well, there was that flood thing. Some guy built a boat.
If it’s not ‘space junk’ - stuff we’ve put up - it’s could be a meteor storm:
“The first great storm in modern times was the Leonids of November 1833. One estimate is over one hundred thousand meteors an hour,[3] but another, done as the storm abated, estimated in excess of two hundred thousand meteors during the 9 hours of storm[4] over the entire region of North America east of the Rocky Mountains.”

Were any meteors sighted near Grover’s Mill, NJ?
True, the remuneration is reduced since my retirement...
But I still work...out on my bikes and rollers for the winter, spin bike too!
On the road and dirt in good weather.
My intervals the other day, five sets of 90 seconds at MAXIMUM heart rate 100%, 90 seconds rest periods!!!
That is hard work!
Come on by and give it a spin!
It’s a commercial Real Ryder spin bike, quickly adjustable, bring riding shorts!
It was on its way to Peshtigo, Wisc.
“Were any meteors sighted near Grovers Mill, NJ?”
Sadly this time they landed near Ferguson Mo.
A very bad outcome, but no laws were broken.
Many interesting offers on Ebay for ‘frozen parts’.
Peshtigo Fire Fatalities 15002500 (estimated)Chicago ~300
Occurring on the same day as the more famous Great Chicago Fire, the Peshtigo Fire has been largely forgotten.[3][4] On the same day as the Peshtigo and Chicago fires, Holland and Manistee, Michigan (across Lake Michigan from Peshtigo), and Port Huron at the southern end of Lake Huron also had major fires, leading to various theories of mutual cause by contemporaries and later historians.

Comet theory
One speculation, first suggested in 1883, is that the occurrence of the Peshtigo and Chicago fires on the same day was not just a coincidence, but that all the major fires that occurred in Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin on that day were caused by the impact of fragments from Comet Biela. This theory was revived in a 1985 book[18][19] and investigated in a 2004 paper to the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics
I hadn’t read your post yet when I posted #18.
I used to hunt in the Peshtigo area.
You'll need a heavy duty bike.
