Wow Marc that news got the adrenaline pumping . Opheim, MT looks to be
winter wheat farming country, with areas of range land around that. Its been
snowing on & off here at my airpark in Wa. But the snow melts quickly once
the sun comes out. Temps in Opheim MT. are mid 40 day & mid 20 night till
Thursday & Friday then 30 percent rain & snow. Thanks a bunch Marc.
Looks like I might need to load up the Lance camper on to the Dodge & drive
north into Cold & windy N.E. MT for a week. Waiting for a bit more intel
before I hit the highway

Subject: [meteorite-list] Montana/Sask event, 07 Apr 0920 UTC
Howdy all
I've got limited internet access at the moment, but could someone have a
look at the town of Opheim, MT as the possible location of the
Montana/Saskatchewan fireball reported for 07 Apr 2011, ~0920 UTC?
Specifically, a location southeast of that town but not over the county
line.
This fireball was reported on AMS as event 381a and 382b.
Approximate coords: 48.746170 N, -106.190109 W
I see a potential meteorite signature in data from the KGGW radar near
that location, with radar returns from near ground level up to ~84,000'
altitude. Rob Matson and others, could you check me on that?
Cheers,
Marc Fries
