I was traveling in my car and did not have the advantage of listening to the bolide that I saw. Also, I was traveling in the same direction as the meteor was moving across the sky. Regards, Eric S. Houser

The bolide went behind a cloud and illuminated the cloud. As the bolide came out from behind the cloud into the dark sky, it began to break apart and the disintegrate.
