I had never seen anything like it before. After looking at pics on line...it resembles the one that was seen over San Antonio in April of this year.

Remarks
Train of what looked like fire in the sky. Lasted over 5 minutes. Was not leaving a trail of smoke just a trail of fire. Might have been 2. Not sure about the second...but am sure about the first one. Trail was at least 60 feet long. Looked like a streak of fire floating through the sky.
