    Note: The latest elset shows this running 21 sec early against 
    yesterday's prediction. I have this decaying soon after the final
    equator crossing above. This puts it over the central USA on a 
    northbound pass from southern New Mexico at (Jun 3) 00:03 UTC to
    Denver, Colorado, at 00:05 and Fargo, North Dakota, at 00:07.
