  • description: Meteor Reported Over LA, San Diego, Southern California on November 6. 2013 A meteor or a fireball or some kind of bright light flew over Los Angeles, San Diego, and southern California on Wednesday night, prompting a flood of tweets and calls--and people in Arizona, Chicago, and Texas also saw something similar. Thousands of people are reporting that they saw something in the sky via Twitter and other social networks. "I saw it! Huge flash of light, followed by a streak of light for a few seconds, and then it was gone. Scary but beautiful," Russ Haigis , a San Diego resident, told Epoch Times. "I saw the meteor it was huge and broke into three large pieces," said another person via Twitter. "Looked like something burning up upon entry into atmosphere, big flareup. Meteor, maybe," said Mary Slosson. "Saw meteor in Newport Beach driving south on Pacific Coast Highway, giant blue fireball, white in center w. long smoky tail, heading SW then FLASH!" said another user on Twitter. In addition, dozens of people have reported to the American Meteor Society, with reports from various areas of California--including Temecula, San Bernardino, and Chula Vista--as well as St. George, Utah; and Brenda in Arizona. "Most brilliant white object I've ever seen," said John B. from Temecula, CA. "Looked as bright as burning phosphorus." The National Weather Service said: "Lots of meteor sightings this evening . These are likely associated with the South Taurids [meteor shower]." The meteor shower is well-known for having a high percentage of fireballs--or exceptionally bright meteors--according to EarthSky. Meteors are bits of rocks and ice ejected from comets as they move in their orbits about the sun. This reporter hasn't seen any legitimate pictures or video of the meteor or meteors. Haigis of San Diego told me that "It happened so fast taking a pic was impossible." Story developing; check back for updates http://m.theepochtimes.com/n3/348504-meteor-flies-over-la-southern-california-on-november-6/ Numerosos testigos aseguran haber visto un meteorito sobre Los Ángeles, San Diego, California Sur, así como en Texas y Arizona, lo que ha desatado un avalancha de tuits y de llamadas. Mientras unos escriben presa de la alucinación cosas como: "Iluminó toda la ciudad", otros expresan su incredulidad: "O acabo de ver un meteorito sobre Los Ángeles o mi amigo de Facebook y yo estamos sufriendo de una psicosis colectiva". "He visto el meteoro, era enorme y se rompió en tres grandes pedazos", asegura un testigo a través de Twitter. Otra mujer lo describe así: "Parecía algo ardiendo al entrar en la atmósfera, un gran estallido. Un meteorito, quizá". "El objeto blanco más brillante que he visto jamás", escribe John B. de Temecula. "Se han registrado un montón de avistamientos de meteoros esta noche. Probablemente están asociados a la Táuridas del Sur [lluvia de meteoros]", comentó por su parte el Servicio Meteorológico Nacional. El avistamiento de este meteoro ocurre horas después de que científicos declararan que la caída de meteoros como el que estalló en febrero sobre la ciudad rusa de Cheliábinsk son más frecuentes de lo que se pensaba - See more at: http://www.santicontreras.com/2013/11/meteorito-en-los-angeles-y-san-diego.html#sthash.FBgjJ0ix.dpuf
