[meteorite-list] Sonic Boom

[wahlperry at aol.com]

Hi All,

I had a chance to talk to Skip Wilson about the Portales Fall. The 
occupants of two of the nearby residences (about a half mile apart) 
sitting directly under the main break up did not hear anything. One of 
the residents happened to be working outside when the meteorite broke 
apart. Interestingly enough the Portales residents who were situated 
directly behind and in front of the break up heard two distinct sonic 
booms.
