Meteor Airburst off Coast of Massachusetts, over Cape Cod bay

2026, May 30. USA, Massachusetts, over Cape cod bay. Large Meteor/Airburst. Time: 14:11 p.m Eastern Time, 18:06: 17 UTC. Tremor and sonic boom. Dozens of people across the Northeast reported seeing the fireball. Sightings stretched across multiple states, including New York, Maine, Pennsylvania, Vermont, New Hampshire, and also Canada (Toronto to east coast). Concurrent and delayed sound heard. A loud double sonic boom was reported and was heard and felt across Eastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island. In Newbury, the fire department said their communication center had received a number of calls from concerned residents who report witnessing a significant geological-type activity. Some people thought trees fell on their houses, saying their homes shook. Others said their dogs were going wild, and they watched for lightning but never saw any. Many said that it scared them, that they'd never heard anything like it. Satellite lightning data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration showed a signature consistent with a meteor around the same time the boom was reported. No earthquake reported by USGS. At the moment reports have the object travelling ESE.  

Will update this post.
