Melanie, Greg and all,
I think we have a ways to go to break the record. In 1933 as many as 19
meteorites fell worldwide if you count 2 finds that were reported to have
been observed to fall in 1933 but were found later and are classified as
finds. The second greatest number of falls occurred in 1868 when 13 falls
were witnessed and recovered worldwide. In 1933 seven falls were witnessed
to fall in the US; Pasamonte, Cherokee Springs, Athens, Sioux County, and
Malaga plus Willard (b) and Elton which were found later, but are believed
to be 1933 falls.
Cheers,
Frank

Melanie:
I asked this same question earlier in the year; someone responded with
some numbers from past years, but I do not remember who. I think we may
break the record though.

I have returned you lucky people!
Has the year 2009 set a new record for the greatest number of witnessed
fireballs seen within one year? If not - what year has the most reported
falls?
