According to my source, this news missed most news sources. 100's of
witnesses at lunch time saw this huge fireball and experts estimate hundreds
of stones still on the ground, in the snow estimated from 5g to 20kg. Many
specimens recovered in a 6km x 3km zone. I believe the largest recovered
specimen is about 12.5kg
I suspect we should be seeing some of this in the near future!

Cheers!


Jim
