Hi again meteor observers,

I'm receiving at the present time dozens of reports of this fireball,
which seemed to have been dramatic.
Actually, it occured on August, 15th, 19h59 UT, and was observed from
North-Eastern France, Belgium, and the Netherlands. I'll try to calculate
its path in the atmosphere as soon as possible.
It was estimated to -7 to -10 magnitude, and lasted at least 8 seconds!
A video of it was taken by Tioga Gulon and its video station in Central
France. It's visible at the adress:

I'll let you informed of the following of the story!

Clear skies and bright fireballs!
Karl
