Charles:
     I did not see anything at the time and date you stated.  I live in SE 
CT and my computer desk faces toward the Boston area through several 9 foot 
high windows.  I was at the computer  until 1 AM on Thursday morning and the 
visibility is good enough to see stars and satellites even with the ambient 
light inside the house.  This must have been fairly low.  Although this may 
be wishful thinking, it seems reasonable to expect that some material may 
have made it to the ground. We still have decent snow cover here, although 
the rain last night helped reduce the depth, but after the snow melts people 
may be finding stones that weren't there before the blizzard.  It would be 
nice to take a helicopter ride to look for craters in the snow.
