Back Story Via the Edmonton Sun:

Researchers are trying to track down a meteorite that flashed through the skies Thursday night before a snowfall makes the search impossible.

Otherwise they’ll have to wait until spring when the snow melts, and chances of finding it may be slim by then, said Frank Florian, director of space sciences at Edmonton’s Telus World of Science.

“That’s why we need to iron this down today,” he said.

Florian has been receiving hundreds of phone calls and e-mails about the meteor sighting, all with varying accounts of where the flash of light took place.

“We’re trying to take all the reports and put them together in a meaningful conclusion as to where it might have fallen,” Florian said.

The rock seems to have flown in the general direction east of Red Deer and west of Saskatoon and appears to be about 18 metres or larger, he added.

Wow… Reminds me of a song:
