Remarks | Fireball came across highway we were driving on m-20, at a diagonal from our right to left. It looked to be fairly low, maybe 100 feet above ground when we first saw it, red ball with trail and it looked like it disintegrated (trail lasted second longer than ball. Not sure it actually disintegrated but the fire went out. Fireball itself lasted about 3 1/2 seconds. Both my son and I saw it. It appeared from my perspective, to be about the size of a volleyball |
