2 Fireballs fall from the sky over Mitchelstown

    About 6.55, the sky lit up orange over Mitchelstown in Cork, first one fireball fell through the clouds towards the ground, very shortly after another followed, about 10 seconds, relighting up the sky...

    This time there was a clear smoke trail after it... didn't hear anything as was driving on the motorway.

    It was extremely bizzare but seemed too slow for anything like a meteorite. Did anyone hear or see anything on this??

    Apparently simple explanation!

    The army are training in Kilworth woods tonight and are letting off flares. I can hear them as I type this. Sorry, that's a bit of a boring answer, I prefer the idea of fireballs and meteorites!
