- WAVY.com is investigating the loud boom and bright flash in the sky witnessed by hundreds of thousands of people at around 9:40 p.m. Sunday.

People from Maryland to North Carolina have contacted 10 On Your Side and WAVY.com reporting the flash.

Witnesses say they saw a bright light off towards the east traveling across the sky in a west-south-west direction.

Scientists from the National Weather Service in Wakefield say they have also been getting hundreds of calls.

WAVY.com Meteorologist Cheryl Nelson says there were no storms on the radar at the time.

We have also put calls into the military, local airports, geologist, and there have been no reports of anything out of the ordinary.

Stay with WAVY.com and WAVY News 10 for the latest on this developing story.

If you have pictures of the bright light, send them to photos@wavy.com .

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh......I was testing my new board...

hum interesting, so it was u then testing the new Hayabusa board out, lol
 
A week ago there was a flash of light and a boom that grabbed people's attention around the Augusta, GA. area.
 
I think it was a UFO...just saying...I heard it and don't buy the meteor thing....I mean does a meteor accelerate that quickly to break the sound barrier? It sounded like something blowing up.

That's good news maybe we'll get a new batch of great sci-fi movies like we had in the 50's and 60's :laugh:
 
Someone was testing the Continuum Transfunctioner.....Or maybe the Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator.....
 
If you actually read the article it's really no mystery at all.

It sounds exactly like a Meteorite. I've seen a couple of really good ones in Colorado, saw a bunch of em' during a meteor shower in Florida as well.

And yeah sonic booms are BIG.

ETA: Almost forgot I watched one skip once... streak in, then a hard about 60degree corner. That was cool. IF no one has ever made a point of heading out during the Pereids or Leonids shower you've got to make a point of getting out into the sticks (or Cap's house) and watch, it can be an almost spiritual event. Watched the Perseids one year in Florida, was a good clear sky and there must have been a 50-100 a minute...

Sorry about that, i was testing the NOS on my busa and it got away from me. If you find it please let me know....BIG REWARD :laugh:
 
It was aliens! They tried to steal my Busa so I shot them down. No seriously it was part of a Russian Soyuz rocket. See below....

The mysterious boom and flash of light seen over parts of Virginia Sunday night was not a meteor, but actually exploding space junk from the second stage of a Russian Soyuz rocket falling back to Earth, according to an official with the U.S. Naval Observatory.
