"Spectacular Meteor Streak Captured on Cameras Across England"

A spectacular fireball meteor was observed over parts of the UK and France, with over 100 reports made to the International Meteor Organization. Captured on video in Birmingham, England, the meteor displayed a bright blue and sometimes green light, indicative of metallic elements burning upon atmospheric entry. The event coincided with the ongoing Quadrantids meteor shower, which is known for its intense activity and potential as the strongest meteor shower of the year. Witnesses were awed by the brightness of the meteor, with some comparing the flash to daylight.
