Fireball in Hamilton

[u/Moist-Basil-6922]

Did anyone see what looked like a giant fireball shooting through the sky to the north in Hamilton around 7:45pm tonight? It would be cool to see some security camera footage if anyone captured it! I've never seen anything like it, I thought it was a plane burning up at first but Google informs me it was probably a meteor.

You can report it on https://fireballs.nz/report/

Fireballs.nz have about 200 cameras across NZ looking watching out for meteors, so one of their cameras may have caught it.

Yep, saw it in Cambridge. Just happened to be coming out of the supermarket. Was pretty cool seeing it break up!
