Remarks It had just got done raining and I went out to see if the clouds had moved over and as I stepped out on the back steps I looked up to the north and it came out of the few clouds that were there it didn't last more then a couple seconds but I was amazed at how big and bright the colors were so radiant , greens and a deep purple and a bright white with such a glow as it broke apart it was truly the most amazing thing I'd ever seen in the sky. Came down at an angle northeast to the northwest . My head was tilted back looking just about straight up not completely straight up but as it broke apart it was still visible and at the top of the trees to the north
