    Anybody see the small fireball that fell between 8:50pm and 8:55pm approx directly to the south?

    I saw it in Kilkenny. It only lasted about 5 seconds but initially looked like a small orange light moving down, then flared up into a bright luminous green ball with a lovely tail of sparks falling from it.

    The green colour was really striking. Looked almost like a firework.

    I saw an interesting meteorite a few days ago. In phibsboro, it was to the south and falling away from my direction. There was a bit of colour, and it was nice. I wouldn't have described it as lasting 5seconds though Maybe just 1 second. I felt lucky because it was cloudy and I saw it through a gap in the clouds.
