(meteorobs) Very Large Meteor at Bryce Canyon 7/6

[Buddy Oakes]

Southern Utah has been very dry and is a virtual tinderbox.  The fireworks 
display we saw at Zion ended up in a forest fire.

The area is on the verge of the annual summer monsoon season which consists 
of random afternoon downpours and local flash floods.  Generally it clears 
at night and should not be a problem.
