Just wondering if anyone else in the west saw it. I used to have the url of meteor reports but found only report forms, not reports themselves.

Sure was bright, with a big flash as it burned up. Power was steady on the 140-41 area. The microwave oven has no battery backup that I know of, so it's my outage indicator.

An AC analog clock would give the time, as well. Don't have one.
