Uk Fireball in West this evening
Just seen what I suspect was a very bright meteor behind cloud around 2033 BST. Looking West from near EGSS I saw a very fast orb, apparent size about 50% of current moon. Apparent track S-N and apparent angle of decent about 35 degrees. There are thunderstorms about but certainly not a normal lightning flash. Never seen ball lightning though. Not like a firework in any way. Plenty of aircraft around at the time and I am sure it would have been visible from the flight deck. Very spectacular.
