What's harder than catching lightning on your webcam?

Catching a meteor of course!

from the author of the sebectec software

"We were in the right place and right time to get this photo: http://www.portsmouthwebcam.com/index.php/amazing-meteor-picture/

A meteor streaked though this 4 second exposure on February 28.  It was seen across New England and generated a lot of interest.  Someone claims to have found pieces of it in Exeter, NH.  I keep four sebectec webcams running day and night with a view of the Memorial Bridge in Portsmouth, NH.  At night we make one 4 second exposure every 12 seconds.

CNN asked for a copy of the image and said plans to show it on the weather segment this weekend.
