I was driving home on my dead end road and noticed the sky brighten up as if there were a full moon. This caused me to look up and immediate see a huge blueish green ball with a long tail go across the sky and disappear behind the treeline. It was big enough to the point where I stopped my car and music expecting to hear a boom (I didn't end up hearing anything). It lasted about 4 seconds in total.
