We had here in Finland probably the best meteorite dropping fireball that we have well captured in our cameras, in Feb, 16 , 2009 at 22 UT. The geocentric radiant of this was 48, +28 , so this could be connected to what you have now and maybe with what Dirk tells about. The Vinf was derived as 13.5 km/s. And actually we have during the years, around this time of the year, had some other expected quite good meteorite droppers (at least one of these outside our country borders) , with roughly similar solar system orbit. It would be interesting to get the orbits derived for yours. Keep all your cameras open, please ;) Esko On 2013-02-14 13:29, James Beauchamp wrote: > Dirk , I've had three very slow events the last two days.

These observations are as good of an early-warning system as we will get. Can't say we weren't warned, -- "CL" (Chicken Little) ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
