2024, April 21. New Zealand, West North Island, Tasman Sea. Meteor. Time: 12:52 UTC. Location (Start -37.52, 174.89: End -39.59, 172.51). Travelling S.W. Velocity: 47.89 km/s. Flight Duration: 308km in 6.57 seconds. Height starts at 106km and ends at 96km. Connected to April Lyrids. This event might create a marine animal disturbance. It was out at sea when fragmenting, and seems to be an isolated event. The atmosphere is quiet at the moment. For marine life to be disturbed meteor showers or one-off meteoroid streams have to be lengthy over days or weeks. This causes prolonged irritation leading to a stranding event. These larger events though are in a category of their own and are highly likely to cause MAD's. Farewell Spit/Cook Strait area could see a stranding.
