Hey guys.

Been a while since I posted here, but finally found my way home :)

Tonight at 9:37 pm at approx N. by E. (11 degrees) a fireball started at
approx.  40 degrees off the horizon and proceeded to 12 degrees off the
horizon at which time it flashed out.  (It appeared to be traveling in a
downward direction).  It started white with the brightness equal to Jupiter,
only with like 2-3 times the diameter of Jupiter, then turned a bright
green, followed by a bright white flash brighter then Jupiter.  No sonic
boom was heard though.

My location:

26N 39' 34"
81W 33' 34"


Clear Skies!
Mark
