A 7-ton meteor that sped across the Cleveland sky at 45,000 miles per hour, causing a thunderous boom, was reported by residents several states away. The American Meteor Society confirmed it was a meteor nearly 6 feet in diameter. The meteor was first seen 50 miles above Lake Erie and traveled more than 34 miles before fragmenting over Valley City, north of Medina. It unleashed an energy of 250 tons of TNT when it broke apart, causing the vibrations. The National Weather Service reported no immediate reports of any debris being found.
