Edge Report post Posted February 18, 2020 7:19am Sunday morning just moments before sunrise, a meteor streaked across the AZ sky. It's trajectory was from east to west, South of 20A. The accompanying sonic boom registered 3.2 on the Richter Scale. I'd be interested in hearing from anyone whom witnessed or heard/felt this event. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edge Report post Posted February 19, 2020 I'm figuring out how to go back two days and look at the Doppler radar loop from the time. Would have been a lot easier to access them had I done it Sunday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was in our first stand of the morning out calling coyotes Please describe the event, I'd like to hear from an eyewitness. What did you think it was when you saw/heard it? I've seen a couple long winded meteors (none in daylight) in my life but never any I thought made it to earth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coffeeman Report post Posted February 19, 2020 Didn’t (See) witness it but woke everyone in the house up. Where my bedroom sits in nw Prescott Valley sounded north of us towards the airport/chino valley. Sounded like really loud rolling thunder... boom boooom bang! Wife and I sat up immediately and asked each what that was. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah something that size should have kicked up a little dust. Somebody with a motorized hanglider would have a foot up on the crowd. Guys are finding meteors on dry lake beds using easy flights.

Oh, that was Michael Bloomberg's last remaining hopes after the debate last night that exploded and fell to earth. Nothing to see there. 4 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most are the size of pebbles, not this one. It broke up in the atmosphere and three main bodies are filmed thousands of feet above Prescott. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
