It appears pretty certain that there was an impressive re-entry,
eastbound multiple fragmenting fireballs, over North America a 
little while ago:

If so, it was a Russian upper stage, NORAD 22273, COSPAR 92-088E.

One non-observation maybe was due to too bright twilight?

It's been cloudy and rainy here most of the time for at least
a couple of weeks.  I sure had hoped to try to see JBOs, but
no such luck.  Congratulations to those who did!
