Apologies for the last message. I misinterpreted the initial predictions and it does appear to have been heading the other way and AMS has it terminating near the coast slode to Dieppe and FRIPON even closer...other models now showing that indeed it may have dropped material on land. Good luck to my friends heading there for a search.
