It may have been captured by at least one 'skycam'; take a look at Chris
Johnson's site which is online.

My 'allsky' camera caught an earlier bright fireball (around 1845 hrs.), and
I am alot further south than you folks, SE of Sierra Vista. The one I
captured started in Pegasus and finished in Pisces, heading in a north to
south direction.

To All,
Just a few moments ago (19:34 hrs), a very bright, exploding bolide lit up
the inside of the observatory with a very white light as it traveled
straight overhead West to East. Not only was I startled by the brightness of
the light but also by a simultaneous "rustling or rumbling" sound that
occurred. I know that the sound could not have traveled to the ground that
fast if at all but strange all the same and may have been a coincidence or a
reflex of some sort caused by being startled. I happened to look up to see
the last couple of seconds as it exploded into many fragments which dimmed
quickly.
Anyone else see it?
Thank you,
Jimmy Ray
