It was a nice slow bright meteor with obvious fragmentation. I was driving eastbound on Hwy. 69 in Prescott Valley approaching Glassford Hill Rd. It began slightly to the right of the direction I was traveling (roughly ESE) and terminated just barely above the horizon of Mingus Mountain slightly to the left of my direction of travel. Can't report sound since I was inside a moving car at the time. I checked the time on my cellphone shortly after I saw it and it said 8:04pm local time (MST) so I believe the actual time was pretty accurate at around 8:03pm-8:04pm local time.
