At about 7:10 last night, a meteor flew across the Chicago area in a fiery flash hitting the earth causing a magnitude 2 earthquake, confirmed by The United States Geological Survey.
The American Meteor Society received about 200 reports of a “fireball meteor” seen over Illinois and other states.
I don’t know if I am more bummed that I missed seeing an actual meteor, or concerned that I DIDN’T EVEN NOTICE THE SKY LIGHT UP LIKE THE FOURTH OF JULY AND/OR FEEL A FRIGGIN EARTHQUAKE!!!
