First video of Texas "Meteor" from Feb 27

• When: February 27, 2013, 3 am
• Where: Southeast Texas area, Freeport/Houston
• What: Fireball/meteor

With all those fireball sightings from Wednesday - in Texas and Louisiana - I've been eager to see a video or photo! Well, we've finally got one. The video shows a glowing ball moving through the sky, it's dark footage and it's a great one to add to the pile.

KSDK.com, along with other local news outlets, reports that Captain William Lowry saw the meteor from his boat in Freeport. The Captain was stunned by the meteor, as he's used to seeing shooting stars, and this was so much more epic than that.

The debate about what really flew over Texans' heads on Wednesday morning... was it a meteor, space junk, or something else? Either way, with recent UFO outbreak in Houston, and the Russia/Cuba/Saudi Arabia/etc/etc meteors, one wonders.

A few quotes from the witness:

(i've seen) "nothing like this of this magnitude"

"approximately lasted 3 to 4 minutes"
