PITTSBURGH — Hundreds of people across the region reported seeing a light streak across the sky Thursday night
While we don't specialize in meteors (well, hydrometeors, but that's different 🌧️), many reported seeing a meteor/fireball cross the sky at 7:33 tonight. Here's the video from one of our forecaster's skycam pointed towards downtown Pittsburgh. pic.twitter.com/6C0NKw7Tur

The National Weather Service in Pittsburgh said reports of meteors started coming in around 7:33 p.m. and captured footage from a SkyCam pointed downtown.
A meteor is a streak of light in the sky caused by a meteoroid crashing through Earth’s atmosphere, according to the National Geographic Society.
