It was a very bright with a long tail. The tail had some green color in it. It was very low and I watched it for about 5 seconds or so. It was traveling north to south and the broke apart. I have seen one larger than this years ago t 4:45 am on my wy to work. I feel very blessed to witness such an awesome display twice.

Waited for the bang at the end but it never happened. It had a sparkling trail behind it and a sizzling sound making it seem as if it were fireworks but did not have a fireworks trajectory (arc) it seemed to move more slowly than other meteors I had seen. As I was looking due South, It came from West North West going East South East about 45 degrees above the horizon. I would say it went to the ocean as it traveled at a consistant but what appeared to be a rather low elevation for a meteor and was visible longer than you would expect a meteor to be.

My husband and I saw a green glowing ball with tail fly across the sky for a few seconds and then fall down and just disappear. We saw this at about 8pm in northeast Ohio heading in an easterly direction near the border of PA.
