If the wind data is still available, it may be good to model<br>
the fall with winds in different altitudes. It&acute;s quite amusing,<br>
how strong the effect of the wind could be in smaller fragments.<br>
<br>
We had a very promising bolide in Finland in February, and<br>
in first modellings we forgot the wind. In the modellings with<br>
wind data the smaller fragments (about 50 grams) changed<br>
their direction over 140 degrees before landing...<br>
<br>
take care,<br>
