Three days ago, someone asked if anyone recalled seeing a fireball report
from Washington DC in 1994? Sorry, I can't recall who asked that question
now. Over the last 3 days, I went thru my copies of FIDAC News for 1994 and
1995. I didn't find anything that seemed to be the fireball in question for
1994. However, I did find one on Jan 23, 1995. Actually there were four
reports that could be the same sighting if you take into account of the
possibility that the people who reported them had trouble with converting to
Universal Time. They are:

Jan 22, 1995 at 22h30 UT
-8 magnitude
Maryland and Virginia area with a 3 second duration.

Jan 22, 1995 at 22h33 UT
-8 magnitude
 Downtown, Penn with a 3 second duration

Jan 22, 1995 at 21h30 UT
-12 magnitude
Belhaven, NC with a 7 second duration

Jan 23, 1995 at 23h28m UT
-10 magniutde
Washington, D.C. with a 5 second duration and a terminal burst.
