I was just merely pointed out there were some similar wording with the Nakhla observations, but the India case doesn't prove or disprove the Nakhla dog story. Just as a reminder, here's the text which we both were in agreement with concerning Nakhla: A rain of 40 stones fell from the sky in 1911 near Nakhla in Egypt. The falls were preceded by an appearance of a cloud and detonations, frightening local residents. There is an eyewitness account that one of the fragments hit a dog. Efforts to substantiate the validity of the dog story almost a century later have been unsuccessful thus far, though the story hasn't been disproven either. The stones from this meteorite fall ranged in size from 20g to 1813g, and it is estimated a total weight of 10kg (22 pounds) had fallen.
