PORTLAND -- According to the Cascade Meteorite Lab at Portland State University, a fireball streaked across the sky at 2:17 p.m.
The fireball was seen in Portland, Medford and most likely most places in between.
A fireball is a meteorite that has entered our atmosphere and is burning up. Most times it burns up totally before hitting the ground but once in a while we get a meteorite that lands on earth.
If you saw the fireball, the lab would like to hear from you. You can call them at (503) 287-6733.
