I have seen lots of meteors before, I love to watch showers but this one was so much brighter than anything else. At first I thought it was a drone falling because the green light but then it got brighter and bigger and the trail became apparent so I knew it had to be a meteor. Unfortunately as it became really big and bright it fell behind a tree or a building. I was one franklin street in Chapel hill which has a lot of light so I was surprised to see it catch my eye in that lighting.

It left sort of a sparkling trail behind for a few seconds, it sort of disappeared behind a tree but it got bigger as it came down.
