I saw this incredible sight Wednesday early morning and googled the next day and found your site. Found an entry from marc k in Quincy who saw what seems to be the same sighting. I went to check again today if anybody saw it and now his sighting is gone. I thought it was my duty to corroborate his sighting. It was the most amazing thing I ever saw and unexpected just driving home! Why is sighting not there? Do you guys know anything more about this particular event. This fireball was BIG!
