I saw a space story on-line which is interesting in case it burns up over your QTH. A Kosmos satellite is estimated to re-enter and crash on Sunday:

or ... http://tinyurl.com/psgbbwh in case line-wrap clobbers the URL.
The article includes a link to the n2yo.com page for tracking the Kosmos.

Here's some additional information:

I hope it won't be a repeat of Kosmos 954 which came down in northern Canada in January 1978, spreading radioactive debris all over the place. Most of it was in the Northwest Territories and Nunavut.
