Meteorite

Update: Someone in Narrogin heard the same thing! Click here to read about it. -------------------------------------------------- Update #2: Just heard on ABC local radio dozens of reports all over the southwest of Western Australia of seeing a bright light making it's way across the sky from west to east followed by a sound described as similiar to a sonic boom. -------------------------------------------------- Update #3: The Sunday Times has a story about the meteorite. It's just a shame that I saw it through the bathroom window and not through a clear one. -------------------------------------------------- I'm freaking out. Something big just happened outside. I'm not sure what it was, but it has me confused and a little worried. I was sitting in the bath, just about to relax and listen to a podcast, when I just happened to be staring in the general direction of the window. Outside, I saw a white light. The same brightness as lightning, but not. It seemed to stay in the same spot, not forking out like lightning. There was no sound. That was weird I thought. Then about 3 minutes later I heard a loud boom. It was followed by a low frequency rumbling just on the edge of my hearing range. All the birds, dogs and animals in the area started freaking out. I thought that this must be a thunderstorm and that I hadn't seen the second lightning strike. I decided to get out of the bath and unplug my computers and modem just in case. At this point I decided to go outside and check out this "thunderstorm" This is the point where I started freaking out. There was not a cloud in the sky. All I could see were stars. I came inside an noticed that there was a message on my mobile from Greg. I called him back and told him what I just witnessed. He said that he and David were driving along Joondalup Drive in Perth and had seen a similar light in the sky. HOLY FUCK!! It is now about half an hour later and nothing else has happened. My logical mind is telling me that this must have been a meteorite, and that it was travelling in a south east direction, passing first over Perth, then here in Katanning and on towards Esperence. I am going to be keeping an eye on the news over the next day to see if there is some sort of explanation. If you saw something similar I would like to hear about it.
