KPRC2 viewers called the station around 4:45 pm Saturday, reporting a loud sonic boom as a meteor flew overhead!
Viewer Luis Jasso is catching the video from his home in Katy, TX.
Waller County Judge Trey Duhon posted about the loud explosion on Facebook:
“Waller County is BOOMING apparently…. And I’m not talking about growth
Apparently a meteor exploded earlier today somewhere near or over our County. I heard it inside the house and the house shook from it. It startled Lisa who was in the backyard.”
The greater Houston area wasn’t the only place with eyeballs on it; the meteor was spotted in Austin and San Antonio! This was confirmed by volunteer sky watchers on the American Meteor Society website.
We’ve reached out to the American Meteor Society for more details.
If you saw or heard the meteor, share your pictures, videos, and experience with us in the comments!
