I received a follow-up private report from Seiling, Oklahoma 
(36.148, -98.924), that the object was observed moving northeast 
at "very close to" 0:20 Oct. 14 (7:20 p.m. local time).
            
There is a story with a video and a different, and very good 
still photo (that resembles the Peekskill fireball quite a bit) 
at this location:

I haven't seen the video yet and wonder if it's time stamped.  
The story mentions that the event was also observed from McCook, 
Nebraska and also has a fairly embarrassing quote from someone 
at "the North American Air Defense Command".

The site that had published the suggested track has been updated:

It now includes a link to one of Alan Pickup's messages to SeeSat.
