(meteorobs) 2 fireballs in 24 hours in Greece

[Alex Daskalakis]

Hi good morning all

I was reading the news (i am out of country at the moment) and i have read
about 2 fireball reportings, one in the vicinity of Athens and another in
Zakynthos in the past 24 hours. The media report (overexaggerating, as
usual) about meteorite drops....

There seems to be photo evidence of the initial flash, 8:30am in Patra:

Rough translation - the object had a long train, remained in view for 20s
before disappearing out of sight

If anyone else has any news about this (any Greeks who have any other
information or possibly Italian residents in the south), it would be good
to share.

Thanks and best regards,
Alex
