Reply #47: depends how low and how fast it was, I suppose.

There's been talk on the news that some of the concussion were actually sonic booms, due to the speed of the object as it entered the atmosphere and burned up. Also, there is film of the meteor itself (see NWCN) reflected in the windows of a parked car and caught on a security cam. From the tape they broadcast, it broke up into three pieces as it came down, each a very, very bright fireball. Nothing sinister about it, imho, just one of those rare natural occurances that some of us were lucky enough to catch a glimpse of :)
