Photos: 'Meteor' mesmerises North Canterbury residents

August 28, 2018

Many North Canterbury residents have reported hearing and seeing what's believed to be a meteor last evening. 

Sefton woman Amanda Coster says her husband and three children were watching the news around five past six last night when they heard a low booming sound followed by a deep rumble. 

Her husband said he thought he knew what it might have been so the family raced outside to snap off a few photos of what appears to be a meteor.  

He said it looked like it was travelling quite slowly and was heading in the direction of Mount Grey in an east to west direction.
