Widespread reports of a #meteor or #space junk re-entering the atmosphere in the Pacific Northwest (#WA #OR #Seattle), so checked GOES-West and there *is* an interesting cloud that appeared recently. (upper left of this image)

Here's the GOES image of that spot.

Lots of video...

EUMETSAT Nightime Microphysics shows a big smear in that location... (meteor or space junk). Pacific Northwest, over Seattle at 9:00PM.

Apparently, Starlink satellite dissolving itself over the Pacific Northwest.
