Re: (meteorobs) Re: [nhas] Did you hear any Leonids?
Hi Dale,
It definitely did not seem to come from the sea or any terrestrial
direction. I'd say the source seemed to be directly overhead and
correspond simultaneously to what I saw visually . One interesting note,
is that I'm fairly certain that I began to hear the sizzle sound on one,
just a fraction of a second before I saw the meteor which appeared to be the
source.
Now understand, this sound was so faint and so similar to what a firework
(not exploding, but shooting skyward from a great distance) would sound,
that I initially discounted any possibility of it being real. So, I did
think it was coming from my head.
