OK - you definitely want the time and date. The time was 10:35am Eastern
Daylight Savings Time - on APRIL 01, 2012.
Sooooo........

HAPPY APRIL FOOLINGS DAY!!!
;-)
I do apologize for this, but what I said was partly true. There was indeed
a slow moving fireball moving east to west that lit things up as bright as
day - it was the Sun.
You can partly blame Mike Gilmer for inspiring me to do this by bringing his
Sylacauga hair post back to life. I think he's used that twice now - right,
Mike?
For those outside of the US who do not celebrate this great tradition of
April Fooling, I offer a second apology. I think I had one or two people
going with this one.

I have had a couple recorded over the past week, but like Jim said I need a
time.

Hi Ed,
It would help to have a date and exact time.
Even if the cameras do not capture anything, an operator can go back and
make a movie (Sandia./NMSU network) for the time stated to determine if
there was anything out side of what triggers the recording to take place.
Cheers!
Jim

Subject: [meteorite-list] Slow Moving Fireball Over North Carolina
Hi List,
I wanted to report on a personally witnessed, very slow-moving fireball
over central North Carolina, USA. The fireball - so bright that it
illuminated the entire area as far as I could see. Please believe me
when I say that it was as bright as day outside! Never before have I
seen anything any brighter.
Explosions were not heard, nor were there any break-ups witnessed. The
fireball appeared first in the eastern sky, with a trajectory taking it
almost perfectly west. Color was a bright white, perhaps slightly
yellowish. I believe that I can say it was definitely not space junk.
Anyone have anything on their all-sky cameras? Doppler reports? Other
sightings? This thing was HUGE, and I doubt that I was the only one to
witness it. Although I have not heard anything on the local news
channel. Very strange since they manage to report on ingrown toenails,
and poison ivy rash inflicted on local residents.
If anyone can collaborate, it would be appreciated. This has the
potential to be something really big!
Many thanks,
Ed Deckert
