I am sure it hit the ground close to the hwy in the forrest somewhere near where I tried to show on the map. Hope this helps.

Remarks
I was driving over hwy 17 at 7:55 and in front of me about 500 feet above the trees my mom and I both saw a green ball the size of a car with the tail. We lost site when it went into the forrest. When we went further and into the clearing from the forrest (about1 miles up), my son looked back and thought he saw smoke coming from the area it would of hit...
