A bright meteor was seen across North Carolina and the eastern seaboard on Tuesday night around 9:31pm. The meteor, described as a 'scary' fireball, was traveling at 32,000 mph and was captured on various cameras, including a NestCam facing north and videos from residents such as Hollie Willard and Rachel Scott. NASA confirmed the meteor vanished over a lake in North Carolina.

Several reached out about seeing a meteor last night around 9:31pm. I found it on my NestCam that faces north. You can see it in the lower right hand corner. #scwx #ncwx https://t.co/be27aiFHmh
