Reports of a "bright light" and an "orange glow" were received by police across Scotland and the north of England around 9.40pm.
The Met Office tweeted: "Hi All, for anyone seeing something in the night sky, we believe it was a meteorite."
A spokesman for Strathclyde Police said the force had been "inundated" with calls about a bright object in the sky across the west of Scotland. A Durham Police spokeswoman said a number of calls came in around 9.45pm from concerned members of public who had seen a "bright light or a fire in the sky" and believed it may have been incidents involving an aircraft. "
It has been confirmed with air traffic control that there are no incidents of aircraftin difficult and nothing registered on radar," she said. "
The sightings are believed to be either an asteroid burning out or similar which has been restricted to the upper atmosphere only." Grampian Police said reports of people seeing a "flare or a bright object with a tail" were received from across the region. And Dumfries and Galloway Constabulary said numerous calls were made about a "large ball of fire in the sky" across Annandale and Eskdale.
One user wrote on the force's Facebook page: "It was awesome to see! Really big and bright!" Hundreds of people took to Twitter to report similar sightings across Scotland and the north of England. People described seeing a bright fireball moving across the sky with a large tail.
The Kielder Observatory also reported the sighting of a "huge fireball" travelling from north to south over Northumberland at 9.41pm. The Observatory posted on Twitter: "Of 30 years observing the sky #fireball best thing I have ever seen period."

DAVENPORT, Iowa (KWQC) – Janice Blanche-Fisher was sitting outside her east Davenport home Thursday around 9:30 p.m. when she saw a bright orange “fireball in the sky” appear in the west.
“The object was too fast for a plane,” Blanche-Fisher said.
“It looked like a sideways orange ice cream cone.”
Blanche-Fisher estimates the object lingered 2 to 3 minutes, long enough for her to call her astronomy enthusiast husband, Jim Fisher, outdoors to see it.
“Jim couldn't identify it even with binoculars,” Blanche-Fisher said.
“This was something neither of us has ever seen before.”
A Federal Aviation Administration Great Lakes Region spokesperson tells KWQC area air traffic controllers reported nothing unusual Thursday evening, but he questioned whether Blanche-Fisher perhaps saw part of the Perseid meteor shower occurring from mid-July to late August.
“It was too big and slow for one of the Perseid meteors,” Blanche-Fisher said, adding that Perseid meteors in her experience appear to move much faster and remain visible for a matter of seconds instead of minutes.
Blanche-Fisher said the object traveled from the west toward the east-southeast before fading away at the horizon, at which point she contacted KWQC to share the above cell phone photo she snapped of the spectacle.
“I was just so excited, and I wanted to report it ASAP.”
While the identity of the object is unknown, some KWQC TV6 viewers speculate it was a surveillance balloon launched by the Pentagon.
(July 25, 2019) A fireball seen around 12:12am local time was reported to American Meteor Society from 3 of the 8 main islands in Hawaii.
This webcam video of the fireball shows it illuminating observatory buildings at the top of Mauna Kea volcano in Hawaii.

A suspected meteorite the size of a football plunged into a rice field in eastern India, startling farmers, authorities said on Thursday.
Onlookers said the light brown 'fireball' sent them fleeing from the field when it fell at their rural village on Wednesday afternoon, sending up smoke.
Shirsat Kapil Ashok, the magistrate for Madhubani district in Bihar state, said: 'The farmers were working in the paddy field when this heavy rock fell from the sky with a very loud noise.'

The villagers (left) returned after the smoke subsided and pulled the rock out from its four-feet-deep crater. 'We saw it has very strong magnetic properties, some shine and weighs around 15 kilograms,' Ashok added. The find is being analysed by scientists (right) as a possible meteorite
The villagers returned after the smoke subsided and pulled the rock out from its four-feet-deep crater.
'We saw it has very strong magnetic properties, some shine and weighs around 15 kilograms,' Ashok added.
The find is being analysed by scientists as a possible meteorite.
Meteors are particles of dust and rock that usually burn up as they pass through Earth's atmosphere, with those that survive the fall known as meteorites.
These rocks, unlike others that might be found on the ground, often have a dark, scalloped appearance and will seem denser than others in the area.
They also tend to be magnetic.
In 2016 authorities in southern India's Tamil Nadu state said a meteorite killed a bus driver and injured three others.
While Indian scientists backed the claim of the regional authorities, the US space agency NASA later said did not believe the object was a meteorite.
In February 2013 a meteorite plunged over Russia's Ural Mountains, creating a shockwave that injured around 1,200 people and damaged thousands of homes.
Smaller impacts, where the meteorite is only a few meters across are thought to be relatively common - happening about once every 25 years.
The largest crater made by a meteorite or comet was discovered in the Australian Outback four years ago.
It has a 250-mile diameter and is believed to have occurred more than 300million years ago.
Other craters include the 100-mile wide Vredefort Dome in South Africa, created over 2,000million years ago, as well as the 93-mile wide Chicxulub buried beneath Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula - arguably the world's most famous.
It was created by an asteroid 66million years ago - and is believed to have been responsible for wiping out the dinosaurs.

At least nine fireballs of unknown origin crossed almost simultaneously the sky of the city of São José do Ribamar, in Maranhão, BRAZIL. Apparently, this is a rare phenomenon, never before registered.
The meteor swarm was registered on June 26, 2019 by amateur astronomer Edgar Merizio, administrator of the EMM2 / MA monitoring station, associated with the BRAMON network, Brazilian Meteorological Monitoring Network. According to Marcelo Zurita, director of the organization, such meteoroids come from a same meteoroid that may have ruptured before penetrating the atmosphere, possibly a few hours or maybe days before its encounter with the atmosphere.
