Around 9:00 AM, Dad and I were hanging out in the living room talking when suddenly there was a *boom*, and the house shook slightly. Dad and I both ran to a window to look out; first I thought maybe a snow plow hit a telephone pole or something and Dad thought possibly it was thundersnow, even though it wasn't snowing. A local morning news station got reports from all over NE Ohio about the boom and shaking and said it was "possibly" a meteor striking somewhere. The story I linked shows a camera at a bus garage actually capturing the meteor falling to earth. Not sure where it landed...Lake Erie maybe? Pretty exciting!
