Bright light appears in sky over Contra Costa County, California
The speculation has been that this was a meteor over the bay area but multiple witnesses are saying the object was triangular in shape and changed direction. If the witness statements are true than this could not have been a meteor or falling space junk.

| Viewers from the Bay Area to Sacramento sent photos to KTVU of a bright object in the sky just after 6 a.m. Friday. |
Police at multiple stations in Contra Costa County tell KTVU they also received calls.
KTVU checked in with the Vandenberg Air Force Base and FAA who both said they aren't aware of what may have caused the bright light.
There's a strong solar storm scheduled to hit earth beginning Friday morning, and experts say the light could be tied to the storm.
At this point, additional details have not been released.
