Mike, how come it takes so long for the reports to appear on AMS? I looked
last night and again this morning and nothing. Then suddenly there is over
a 100??
Kind regards!

AMS reports are now over 100.
We should have maps of AMS witness reports plotted later today.
This area is heavily covered with all sky camera, so there should be
some videos out there. I do not have time to chase camera operators to
ask them to look for video, but if anyone on the list feels like doing
this, have at it:

The American Meteor Society has been deluged with over 50 reports of a
bright fireball occurring just before 20:00 PDT (also MST) on the evening
of Wednesday September 14th. A quick look indicates maximum brightness
equal to that of the full moon and possibly some fragmentation. I will
not be able to post these to the AMS web site until later today, after I
return home from work. If I can add any details after reading all the
accounts, I will post them.
Clear Skies!
