Did anyone on this list, or at the Texas Star Party monitoring this list observe a very bright meteor with multiple flashes over West Texas on 5/6 at 22:19 MDT ? The event was obscured by clouds from here and still flashed at a -7.4 visual magnitude.
A composite flight image and QuickTime movie capture of this event is available at

Brightest flash occured at AZ 118.1 at an EL of 3.0 from this location which could put this event very close to (maybe just N of) the Davis Mountains.
Thanks for any response.
