Spoke with a friend who lives about 10 miles west of my location who was outside when he saw the sky light up and turned to the east to see a large "falling star" break apart and almost explode he said it was the biggest and most intense he has ever seen and it was headed east toward Lake City Florida he also heard a loud boom that shook his garage he said it sounded like blasting at a quarry
