| Name | David R |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I suspect it is a piece from what fell over Texas. The piece I say was in the north, and Texas is to the south of me. I had just closed the chicken coop and I saw a brilliant white streak over the north mesa, plunging straight down, that lit up the ranch and Golondrino mesa. I mentioned it to a friend on Skype a few minutes later: "[[11/7/2014 6:27:04 PM] David Rice: wow. a fireball crossed the sky in the north as I stepped out side. it made the whole ranch light up.]" It looks like the one seen over Texas came several minutes later, and was larger. |
