The National Weather Service said that a bright flash on the Florida night sky over the weekend was probably a falling meteor.
According to media reports, residents of southern Georgia and the Big Bend area of northern Florida reportedly saw a flash a few days before midnight. National Meteorological Service in Charleston confirmed a mapping tool "detected the light released by the suspected fireball" on a point located about 35 km east of Tallahassee just before midnight.
The Tallahassee office released a loop in which the meteor flashes briefly as a purple dot. We do not know where the meteor landed.
Saturday's flash followed the meteor observations in the southeast Friday morning.
The American Meteor Society says that more than 150 reports have been recorded in Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.
