Thanks Mike H - kind of all over the place, but still consistent with post [5]. Really sorry you missed this one, hurry back ;-). The image actually shows the bolide illuminating a cloud .... way the heck from North Carolina, through Virgina/WVA to Maryland!

Kindest wishes and signing off -
sorry for all the posts to those who don't get an adrenaline rush out from a candidate fall, but this one feels like a tarpon's on the line ... and the places don't look bad to hunt, lots of woodlandish and parkish stuff, some fields sparse population
Doug

Doug, I'm in Europe now and missed this. There were a few reports from ontario so this may have been caught on the uwo fireball network. Heres a map of the ams
reports:

Try contacting uwo and see if they caught it.

(Oct 4 Event)
According to Allegany County 9-1-1 officials at about 4:30 this
morning folks
throughout Western Maryland awoke to a sonic boom created by a meteorite that moved through the area. 12 calls were made to Allegany County 9-1-1 beginning at about 4:22 am from Frostburg to Oldtown. Callers reported hearing a loud boom
and seeing a blue or green light flashing through the sky. County 9-1-1
officials from around West Virginia claimed they received calls about feeling the sonic boom from Carpendale, Capn Bridge and Wardensville. Early reports are that the meteorite may have allegedly crashed somewhere in Virginia. But Virginia Emergency Management officials say they have had no meteorite reports.
NASA officials have been unable to confirm the reports at this point.

Check the line going North-east from around Petersburg WV to
Chaneysville PA ...

"Like a lightning bolt that lit up the sky"

3-4 second daylight - like Sun

several reports of fragmentation like fireworks with fragments glowing
like lightning bolts

Louder sonic booms: Allegany County, MD

OK, why so mum everyone?  Will someone let on ...

We know Mike isn't there yet, Jim, what's up?; The other new PA Mike,
anything?;

Wasn't the 04:22 EDT event on October 4, the most promising since Ash
Creek in the USA? I know if I had my liberty I'd be in Allegany
County
now....or is it too mountainous to be worth it?

What gives - and who's analyzed it?

Someone look up the radar, something, let's hear about it please!  If
it's a wrong, it's a good one.

Almost Heaven - West Virginia! Foggier than the clouds that is, at
the
moment ....

Doug
