Meteor over Canada

"A bright light lit up the sky around 5:30 MT Thursday evening in Western Canada, with people reporting sightings in Alberta and Saskatchewan. People telephoned the CBC newsrooms in Edmonton and Calgary to talk about what they saw."

"'It was a really big flash, lit up the sky, and there was this huge, flaming fireball falling from the sky,' said Rowyn Windsor, 12, who lives on the Canadian Forces base in Cold Lake, Alberta, about 350 kilometres northeast of Edmonton."

The caption of the video up top: "Police dash cam of meteor over Edmonton, Canada. Filmed about 5:30 p.m. Thursday, November 20, 2008."

Hi Joe!

I'm from Brazil and I very impressed about the last big meteor. Do you have any picture of it? Could you put it in your site please?

Thanks.
