Residents in Massachusetts reported hearing a loud boom or explosion, with Boston and Rhode Island being the key areas affected around 2:30 pm EDT on Saturday. Meteorologists are considering the possibility that the event could be related to a meteor. Spaceflight meteorologist Nick Stewart suggested that the unusual flash detected by GOES-19 GLM, not associated with active thunderstorms, could be indicative of a meteor reentry. NBC10 meteorologist Pamela Gardner also mentioned the potential of a bolide or meteor entering the atmosphere, as supported by satellite imaging. The absence of lightning or seismic activity further supports this theory. This incident is still developing, and updates may follow. Stay informed by following credible news sources.
