Reports from those who spotted the meteor around 8:45 p.m. CT stretched from Corpus Christi to Laredo to Lubbock, said Lara Keys, a forecaster at the National Weather Service's Corpus Christi station. Corpus Christi is more than 500 miles from Lubbock. Those who witnessed the meteor described it as "a big, bright shooting star. A big one," Keys said.
The meteor looked like a dazzling light streaming through the sky, as seen at the 12-second mark in the video above, which was recorded by the dashcam of a driver in San Antonio. A local TV reporter tweeted a picture of the meteor that looked like a green ball flying at the tip of a streak of gold sparks.
Meteors are made up of matter from outer space that enter earth's atmosphere. According to the American Meteor Society, Saturday was expected to mark a peak time for meteor showers.
Local authorities reported the ground shaking after the meteor was spotted in the sky, according to the National Weather Service in San Antonio.
