I love to watch the night sky, and this was totally unexpected as I was driving home and was the coolest thing ever! I've been googling it to see if anyone else saw it and came upon your site. Thank you for collecting this data!

Remarks
It was a bright green flash that caught my attention when it first appeared, and as it dropped it appeared to leave a trail and I thought it might have flashed again halfway down the drop was still visible until it disappeared over the horizon (into the tree/building line).
