Default Meteor sighting.

Hi,

Just saw a very bright meteor (I dare say fireball) in the clear, late
twilight sky - lasting approx 3 seconds - an earthgrazer perhaps!?
Travelling almost perfectly west to east. Was bright white with a green
tint and easily outshone Venus.

Seen at approx 19:22 BST. Any other sightings?

I'm in Walsall, West Midlands for what it's worth!

Jon
