Streaking Meteor Brings Light Show, Sonic Booms
From Times Wire Reports
A meteor about the size of a large suitcase flashed across the Northwest sky in the dead of night, setting off booms.
Witnesses along a 60-mile swath of the Puget Sound region from the Tacoma area to Whidbey Island and as far as 260 miles to the east said the sky lighted up brilliantly around 2:40 a.m., and many reported booms as if from one or more explosions.
