I was driving precisely north on SR 99 (before the SR 99/70 split) and saw it streak west (towards my left) of SR 99. Local news reports are talking about it landing in Nevada County, but that cannot be correct.

I saw the light streaking towards my left and the "ball" or light appeared to get large and flashed, as if it blew up.
