It was still quite light out when we saw this fireball. It at first appeared like a firework with a big fiery ball and colorful sparks showering out the back like a tail. My daughter, husband and myself were all coming home at the same time in different cars and at slightly different locations and all saw this. We were driving so we did not hear any sound but at my best guess it was against the east/northeast sky and it was quite close as far as visibility.
