Full story: Evening Sun

Andy DeMoss and some friends were hanging around a campfire in New Park in Fawn Grove, southern York County, early Monday morning when the trees suddenly lit up and turned white.

My son saw this. He was sleeping at his Grandmother's home and she has 2--8ft sliding glass doors. He was on the couch almost alseep when he said the whole room lit up yellowish/white and it looked like a huge spot light was pointing in his face. He said it then turned bright blueish white and he went to get his grandmother. His grandmother said she saw nothing but when she went to get back in bed the whole house shook. She said she has never felt anything like that before in her life--it was as if the house was vibrating out of the ground. Her and the boys smacked into eachother in the hallway and did not sleep a wink all night.
This was in Adams County, Norm's Auction/Gallahger's Junk yard area.
My son will NEVER ever forget this.

I heard a VERY loud boom (in town/Hanover) and thought "Boy that is one heck of a storm we're going to get" and listened for about 5 min's and heard nothing else so didn't think anything more of it until my son called me in the morning and told me the story (above)
I wonder if they will ever find where it landed?

I was on the Internet a little after 1am and heard a muffled boom, but didn't see the light at all. I went outside to the front porch to check it out, and even upstairs to my bedroom to look from that level. Of course by then nothing was showing, and I didn't find out until late last evening what had happened.

We heard this and felt it here in Gettysburg. It shook our house. My husband and I went outside and through the house to see if something had exploded.
Wish we could have saw it.

I was up painting a back room in my house and I stepped outside to put my brushes outside to dry and all of the sudden there was this LOUD boom that shook the air, the ground and all of the houses around me shook and my knees actually buckled a little. I was frozen in fear for a good two minutes before I could go back in my house! It scared me that bad! I went online the next day to see if anyone had reported anything but I didn't see anything in the evening sun. Wow! A meteor! I'm actually relieved knowing what it was now.

I actually did see this as I was getting out of my car from getting home from work around 1:05 AM. The sky lit up very brightly and I thought it must be a storm coming but then I saw a large fireball with a tail fall from the sky. I just thought it was some type of fireworks and thought I hope they don't shoot anymore of them off because I don't want the thing to land on my houseroof or car. It truly was an amazing sight.

Daily Horoscope for December 10

Leo

Be choosy about who you spend time with today. If you're with someone who's habitually miserable or sorry for themselves, you'll soon be dragged down to their level and will struggle to recover again. However, you may feel such sympathy for their plight that you don't see you have any choice but to be with them. If so, do your best to remain positive.
