On the SeeSat mailing list there's a report of a fragmenting 
eastbound fireball over Batavia, New York, at about 1:20-30 
August 2 UTC (20:20-30 August 1 EDT).  Follow-ups indicate
that no re-entries were expected tonight:

Any other reports?

Saturday evening here I saw very nice -1 meteor, fast with 
a very long track, south to west; almost seemed like it 
could have been an earthgrazer, with such a long track;  
started above Scorpius; ended up not too far from Arcturus.
