I observed a meteor and its trail in the daylight. It was approximately 10:30 AM in the morning local time in Silver City, New Mexico, USA. I was outside with a full view of the sky. I happened to be looking at the NW horizon when I saw a meteor shoot across the sky. The meteor was a fireball with a distinctive white tail which briefly covered about 1/4 of the sky. The meteor was flying from zenith to roughly NW horizon. Fantastic and brilliant event to spot during daylight hours!
