Not sure if it qualifies as a fireball but it was not even close to being dark outside and the green/white streak was very easily seen. I have seen many shooting stars and am always looking for them. This is the brightest and longest I have ever seen one and it was when the sun was up. Very impressive.

several pieces broke off directly behind it and stayed bright for a few moments after the head of the streak was gone.
