    Think I just saw a UFO!

    So on way home from work heading south on RT19 where upper end of McKnight Road meets 19 around 9:23pm. I'm stopped at a light and happen to look up and bam a bright white light crossing the sky so damn fast. Did not have a tail or anything. Just a bright white light. Not high altitude as it was below the clouds. Crossed the visible sky in less than 4 seconds. What ever it was was heading south towards Pittsburgh.

    Gotta say this brings back a memory of a near identical event that I witnessed in ~ 1967-68. I was on Pine Creek hill (RT19) when it happened, headed south (or was it north?) at night in my 63 Impala about 1/2 down to where the ramp splits off to go onto McKnight. All of a sudden the sky just lit up with this big ball of light streaking across the NW sky, seemed awful close . It was awesome. Biggest and baddest meteor I've even seen. Don't now remember which way it was headed. I just wrote it off as one helluva a meteor / meteorite. But it's awfully strange I'm reading about you witnessing what you saw in the same place. Now I wonder. Pretty strange ....

    I know it wasn't a meteor. As I remember what the green one from back in the 90's looked like. Saw that one when going to pick my brother up from work.
