What's really amazing is that this event came on a rare clear night  
for those of us in the Northwest, of course it's now clouding up  
again, just in time for the lunar eclipse.

Here are more links for reports on the meteor from other NW news  
outlets.  I don't know if they have any additional video clips.   
There seem to be three or more video clips from widely spaced  
cameras.  Location by triangulation should be possible for an impact  
location.

Some of these stations had large amounts of content on their  
homepages as well.
