Fireball Over Washington State

Postby tsunami_KNUW » Thu Jun 03, 2004 4:41 pm

Too bad I didn't see or hear it. My dad has a night job and he called us before I went to school to see if it was on the news. Must of been some brilliant display! *Take note that the pics is around 3:00 in the morning. Looks like daytime!*

Yeah to view it you have to register which I don't know why they require you to...none of the other news websites has a register/log-in.

Meteor....?..... in Washington.... right near Whidbey Island of all places.... ?....?....

Meteor my a$$. ::)


As I recall Andrew lives in Idaho (potatohead ;D), which is way out of range of seeing what goes on in SEA. You european and U.S. east coast guys don't realize how big the western states are. :)

[move][i][color=Red]Any moment, everything can change, Feel the wind on your shoulder, For a minute, all the world can wait, Let go of your yesterday. Can you hear it calling? Can you feel it in your soul? Can you trust this longing? And take control, Fly

Well if you read the story correctly, the meteor could also be seen in Idaho and as far south as Portland, Oregon

Does anyone else have a link to a site near them showing live video pictures of where they live... ;)...?

I store these sites in my "Video Camera" folder.
At the moment I have them for San Fransisco, Santa Barbara and Los Angeles.... ;D...!

...any more nice ones out there...?

Cheers all...!

The nearest webcam I can find to me is at Brighton. http://www.bbc.co.uk/southerncounties/webcams/brighton_camera_pop_up.shtml

We used to have a local beach webcam until the owner's house burned down in 2003.

This site should keep you busy for a while. http://www.ukwebcameras.co.uk/
Be careful which ones you look at or you might see more than you bargained for. :o ;D

Here's a webcam of my hometown... You have to scroll down and click "Oak Harbor Elementary Animiation". Theres a few trees in the way but beyond that is the Harbor and I am not sure what angle the camera is pointing at but you should be able to see Mt. Rainier (very rare sight from here) or the Olympic Mountains on a clear day...Heres a live pic of Seattle. You can actually move this one 360*. This cam is located on the Space Needle

I used to have the URL to Mt St. Helen's live webcam, but I lost it a few years ago :-[
