[meteorite-list] Montana/Sask event, 07 Apr 0920 UTC

[U.S. Airborne]

 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
