Northeast Minnesota Meteor Fireball 27AUG2011

Email From:
Arn P.-Northeast MN:
I witnessed what appears to have been a meteor or fireball day time
event on Saturday August 27th. 2011 at approx. 5:15 PM ct. My location
is 6 miles west of Two Harbors Minnesota 55616. The meteor appeared
for less than 3 seconds as I was facing due north at or about 45
degrees to the horrizon traveling to the east to north east. The
meteor's bright white center was surrounded by a fluroscent blue,
metalic, chrome halo. Smaller than a full moon but larger than the
International Space Station which I have frequently seen orbiting at
night. There were no sonic booms or other sounds to report or any
distinguishable trail.
