Meteor over Dallas?

Did anyone see a meteor over Dallas this morning? I was just watching the news and saw this on the downtown view as the show was ending.

Plane. An asteroid would last one or two frames only and wouldn't blink repeatedly. Planes blink their side lights for visibility.

Not necessarily. This one is a plane but I have witnessed slow moving remnant of a meteor that was probably burning ash burned off a larger meteor that actually meandered as if experiencing wind resistance before it burned out. Lasted about ten seconds

Was this sometime last year? If so, it was likely a Starlink satellite breaking up. I saw the same one and there were some news articles about it.
Real meteors move much, much faster.

About eight years ago. Not an orbiting object. It did not move in a straight line, but the path looked like someone drew a diagonally downward line in an etchasketch

My husband and I saw it while walking the track in early am. Definitely a meteor. Google says it was part of the tail of Haleys comet.

UFO or some other kind of non human intelligence

It was Wemby arriving early for the NBA opening game.

This has been seen in the past on the broadcast. It’s a plane going by, but because of the video compression codec they use, it ghosts small objects and makes them look blurry.

lol you do know there was a meteor shower early am right. Not everything is a hoax.
xmaspackage@reddit
I did not know that, but this is the truth. Sorry to ruin your trolling.

That is the exact landing pattern to Love Field when the wind is from the North.

So it's not the end of the world and I have to actually go to work today?
Ichgebibble@reddit
I mean, you don’t have to.
Independent-Math-914@reddit
This makes the most sense. The video looks like the object is "pulsing" which could be a light. I doubt a meteor would be pulsing, it'd probably be constantly "burning".

Hope it hits Nico's place

Can it swing over to Jerry's house also?

Glad the hate for him is still going.
Fuck Nico.

JFK returning, idiots just got the date wrong.
MechanicAlternative@reddit
Orionids are supposed to be around their peak tonight. Maybe its part of that?
CommercialSystem2791@reddit
That was this morning. 10/21 1am when you could start to see it.
DrH4ck3r@reddit
That is crazy!! Did not see that!
Plantersnutz@reddit
I saw one super bright one last night around 11:45 in Plano
ElementaryRavenclaw@reddit
I found this post after seeing that one last night in Farmers Branch. My bf didn't look up fast enough. Definitely didn't last as long as whatever is seen in this video but I saw the same one as you for sure! :D
ArtisticComplaint3@reddit
Ok so does this mean I don't have to go to work today?

I saw a huge shooting star a couple weeks ago like at 4:30 in the morning I was driving and it was so bright ! It was like the movies. I reacted to it so my passenger looked and was amazed it was so bright

Meteor man has landed in Dallas! Side note. Why has that movie disappeared? Can’t stream it anywhere. Can’t buy a physical copy. So weird in the modern age a movie literally isn’t accessible.

Must be those rocket grenades ICE is buying!

There was a meteor shower last night/this morning.
