You will sometimes see a meteor burn up in the atmosphere over Illinois and Iowa, but you'll rarely see them during the daytime which is exactly what happened early Friday morning.

This was one of the most widely-viewed fireballs of the year so far. Hundreds saw a meteor explode over Illinois and many captured videos of the event that briefly turned night into day over the Land of Lincoln.

You don't see a sky sight like this every day. A backyard camera in Missouri captured video of a humongous meteor as it was exploding in the skies over Iowa.

There is one Missouri town that has been hit by a double whammy. It's known as being one of the most mispronounced cities in America and it was also slammed into by a mammoth meteor. Can this Missouri place catch a break?

One of the most brilliant fireballs of 2023 so far was spotted over Illinois and many other states early Thursday morning and the event was captured by security camera video.

Skies over Missouri are rarely boring. In the spring, it's rowdy thunderstorms. In mid-November, there's something special happening involving the remnants of an ancient comet which will be visible if you look close enough.
