Meteor shower with a huge area has caused a large fireball in the sky, visible from the Wisconsin and at least five other states Wednesday night.
The report, called "large fireball" and the people of southern Wisconsin and other states have said they actually felt the vibration of the earth. meteor was seen from as far as St. Louis.
Officials said a fireball lit the sky was big enough to appear on weather radar in Iowa and photographed by a space laboratory at the University of Wisconsin School Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences.
A Howard County, Iowa, sheriff's deputy, burst fireball captured on video.
The dispatchers in Outagamie County Communications Center reported receiving about 20 calls appeared in the sky, between 10 and 10.15 hours
"We've heard that there was a report from the Midwest and Great Lakes," said Rich Mamrosh, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Green Bay. "Sometimes it seems like going to the neighboring countries and it is hundreds of miles away."
Sullivan National Weather Service Office, near Milwaukee, said no formal decision about the cause of the fireball, or made, it was a meteorite or space debris.
But forecasters said there was a meteor called gamma Virginids occurred on April 4-21 April with the peak rain events Wednesday and today.
"A large meteor fireball that could be brilliant, reporting about the" causes, said weather service.
Meteorological Service in La Crosse, said the fireball was not a waste of space.
"Sky Watchers experienced in northern Wisconsin and the Minnesota in bright green ball of fire streaks the sky at approximately 10:05 EDT on April 14. The pictures roof in Madison, Wisconsin, showed brilliant explosion in flight.
"No satellite decays at the explosion could be expected, the event was probably caused by a meteorite was fair," the office said in a statement.
Network News quoted James Lattif Gaea, the University of Wisconsin Space Place Director, with the provisions of the "meteor shower is a common occurrence, but it seems that most stars do not fall too dramatically, as seen last night."
He said he could be a ball of fire "sporadic meteors" are not really part of a global meteor shower.
Mamrosh said the Meteor, the fireball "meteor blast has emerged.
"There are at least to get within a few thousand feet off the ground (Iowa Weather Radar), the look," he said. "There's debris cloud behind him must have at least a half miles wide and miles wide, in order to lift it.
"Some parts of meteorites on the ground or having something done to the meteorite (be) better than an unusually large stone .."
Objects can be dangerous if they find something, "he said.
He said that when he worked in New York in the 1980s, the meteor has landed two feet wide, hit the car and got into her car and engine before being put into the ground.
"Usually, most of them burned and not on the ground," he said.
If people want to watch the bathroom, now can not be a good night, like clouds and rain in the forecast, he said.
But he said the clear weather Friday night was good for the announcement.
