Anyone notice a meteor around 8:10 MST?  Came out of the southwest, good size, very bright, blue green with slight yellow streak.  I saw it at 12 oclock high and it faded/broke up at about 2 oclock.  I'm in  west Texas and wondering where else it was seen.

I found a site that lists fireballs, nothing close to what I saw but you can enter what you saw and they will analyze it.  Pretty neat!  I used to be into astronomy in my younger days and this was one of those moments you wish you had a camera ready.
