I was driving when I saw it. This was the "slowest"-seeming meteor I have ever observed. It was bright, even with the full moon shining.

Remarks
The fireball went along steadily, then suddenly came apart into one larger piece and 2 or 3 smaller ones (that I could see). They didn't go far from that place before they disappeared.
