Incredible video shows meteor blaze through Pennsylvania sky

New video shows the moment a bright object blazed through Pittsburgh skies on Thursday evening. 

In a clip from his doorbell camera, Phil Haddad caught the bright light as it streaked over the Pennsylvania city. 

I don’t often tweet, but when I do it’s because I captured a meteor on my doorbell cam,” he tweeted.

The local National Weather Service office also shared a video of what it called a “meteor/fireball.”

“While we don’t specialize in meteors (well, hydrometeors, but that’s different), many reported seeing a meteor/fireball cross the sky at 7:33 tonight,” it noted.
