heading to burlington vt from malone ny (taking ferry). had the light from the meteor stayed you could have easily read a book. the blues were so bright with greens swirled in. the center was a HUGE firey blaze. it crumbled apart just before it faded. Ferry boat capitan states he also saw it.

sky lit up blues and greens. the objject itself was firey yellows are reds. it broke into pieces halfway through in a bright flash . first thought was that I was watching a plane crash.
