(meteorobs) Fwd: Midwest [USA] Fireball

[Lew Gramer]

Exciting times for meteor observers... The Lyrids just past, with some folks
reporting possible outbursts. Two major fireballs widely seen here in the US,
within a short period of time. And the Eta Aquarids peak coming up soon!

Enjoy the New Moon, everyone...
