Many reports from Europe of "extreme" fireballs ("flashers" w/persistent
glowing trains).  Practically no reports from North America (just a
few).

My observing runs 11pm-6am on 16/17 & 17/18 (Southwest USA), yielded no
"extreme" fireballs.  The best I saw, was a near-radiant (foreshortened)
meteor ~3am 11/17 PST, which had a small circular glowing train. 
However, it did NOT record on ultra-wide-angle fisheye lens! (not enough
aperture I guess.  But, I still wonder.)
