Bay Area Fire Ball Streaks Across Early Morning Sky

Did you see it? At about 6:09 AM this morning a bright fireball streaked across the sky looking south from the peninsula. It was bright enough to be seen in the pre dawn light. Did anyone else see it? Any ground impacts? We’ll see if any reports come in.

This meteor may have been enough to cause some sonic booms as it entered the atmosphere but I was driving south on 101 at the time so road noise drowned out any possible sound fro the falling space rock.
