(meteorobs) Midwestern USA Fireball March 13, 2012

[James Beauchamp]

Nothing on the OKC camera for that time +/- 15 minutes.  
It may have been too low or dim.  The done did catch a bit of condensation from our recent rainfalls and the warm air with no wind, but certainly nothing -10 mag.  That would have burned through the moisture pretty good.
