The Lyrid Meteror Shower practically dropped one in our backyard! [View all]

Supposedly there was a sonic boom, fireball and a long rumbling/thud... whether there was an impact or the thing burned up before that is still yet to be told..
I was in bed, and my son was in the bathroom...I called to him "did you hear that?" and he said he was hiding behind the bathroom door, lol. The long rumble part made my kitty on my bed start growling...it was very weird...

I wonder how we would access any webcams or other satelitte info for a specific region or time? I looked on the NOAA site but couldn't figure it out...
