A meteorite has hit another house in Connecticut just 19 days after one landed on a home in Wolcott.
Jay Langlois didn't hear or see the rock fall from the sky, but did notice his broken gutter behind his house spewing water.
He didn't know it at the time, but a meteorite had crashed down and landed on his lawn on Red Maple Lane in Waterbury.
It was found still intact. It is about the same shape and size of an avocado, weighs 1.6 pounds and measures 2 inches by 2.5 inches by 4 inches.
Langlois said he's still in shock.
"That's just crazy. It's just unbelievable," Langlois said.
At first he thought his kids had thrown a firecracker at his gutter, but later his wife found the rock on the lawn.
Langlois contacted the same Yale expert who confirmed the meteorite that crashed through a house in Wolcott on April 19.
Dr. Stefan Nicolescu, the collections manager for the Mineralogy Division at the Yale Peabody Museum, confirmed a meteorite landed on Langlois' home.
According to Nicolescu, the Waterbury meteorite is likely related to the one in Wolcott. It was found miles away from where the Wolcott meteorite landed. He hopes to run additional tests of the two.
"What makes it really intriguing is the fact that this one hit the house as well," said Nicolescu.
Interestingly enough, all but one of the reported meteorite falls in Connecticut have happened in towns beginning with the letter "W."
The first recorded meteorite in the New World fell in Weston, Conn. in 1807, according to the Peabody Museum Web site.
Two meteorites also fell in Wethersfield, hitting two houses a mile and a half apart over an 11-year span.
