\n\tHere is a summary of fireballs spotted from the British Isles and nearby during 2012 February:<\/div>\n
\n\t <\/div>\n
\n\t* February 17-18<\/strong>, around 18:55 UT, produced a bright fireball perhaps over the North Sea, as seen from Perthshire & Kinross in eastern Scotland. <\/div>\n
\n\t <\/div>\n
\n\t* On February 18-19<\/strong>, at about 22:45 UT, a fireball of at least magnitude -4 was observed from Herefordshire. This object fragmented into three towards the end of its flight. <\/div>\n
\n\t <\/div>\n
\n\t* February 24-25<\/strong> provided a bright meteor at 18:10 UT or so for another lucky witness in Perthshire & Kinross (not the same person as the previous week, however!). <\/div>\n
