Sightings of the meteor were reported across north Florida, as well as Georgia and South Carolina.

According to CNN, it is not clear whether the meteor hit Earth or burned up in space. The National Weather Service said it heard unconfirmed reports that the meteor landed near Perry, Florida.

This isn't the only meteor to have sent social media buzzing recently. In November, a bright blue fireball over Texas stunned viewers.
