Comet?

Post by TreeGuy »

At 6:20pm tonight I was headed up bridge hill on my way home to Westbank when I saw a bright light. It was off to the right of me travelling in the same direction. It had a tail as it dropped and then vanished. I wish I had my dash cam on.

That would be a meteor - comets are usually visible for much longer periods of time (days at a time) as they make their orbit around the sun.

We just flew in this evening and saw a meteor up here in Northern Alberta around 730pm MST, nice bluish streak going in a northerly direction coming up from YMM.
Nobody wants to hear your opinion. They just want to hear their own opinion coming out of your mouth.

Comets are also very predictable in location and brightness. There are currently no naked eye visible comets in the sky.
