There was a bright daylight fireball over northeast Colorado today (20
June) at about 12:40 PM MDT. I have many reports from Colorado, as well
as Wyoming, Nebraska, and New Mexico. I've talked to a number of news
organizations and tried to give them accurate info... it's not easy. I
didn't talk to Fox.
The fireball was a couple hundred miles from the Springer fire.
Obviously, a meteor isn't any threat to airplanes, but they operate as
they operate.
There appears to be no video, no radar, and no reports of sonics for
this event.

List,
Just now on the top-of-the-hour 8pm pacific-time headline Fox radio I
heard, as best as I can re-quote,
"Fire-fighting planes in Colorado's Fort Collin's major fire are
grounded due to what's being reported as a meteor shower.."
