Fireball in the sky

So today around lunch I witnessed what can only be described as a very weird 'rumble' from above that seemed to go on for more than a solid minute. Sounded like thunder but just kept rolling on. No break like typical thunder. Blue skies for as far as the eye could see. Thought perhaps a plane or helicopter. Shrugged my shoulders and went about my day.
Well now I am hearing that supposedly it was possibly a meteor that came down. 😧
Any of my other SE friends experience this??

From what I've read meteors or fireballs (actually the same thing) can cause rumbling sounds or sonic booms or both.

I was on a lake fishing about dusk one evening and a fireball went over from horizon to horizon directly overhead. But I never heard any sound.

Where are you? Good luck calling NASA. When the meteor was the big deal months ago, I photographed something coming/going in the wrong direction. It turns out that it was a ticket launched from SpaceEx.

Nope nothing like that here. It wasn’t another SpaceX explosion I hope.

@Ambroseguy80 Had I seen the so called 'fireball' I would have thought the same. But not seeing anything and just hearing the odd 'rumbling' was a bit strange. It even rattled the house.

@skmokisses yeah. And there were no earthquakes, correct?

@Ambroseguy80 Correct. There has been no evidence of any earthquake activity. However, they are saying GLM (Geostationary Lightening Mapper) did pick up on the flash of the alleged meteor.

I saw a 2min NBC bit about it…the entirety of the report could be summed up with “So, yeah, that fireball happened. 🤷‍♂”
