I was walking with my girlfriend and told her that I have seen many "shooting star" type meteors in my life but never something that lit up the sky like a lightening bolt like this one. it was beautiful and awe-inspiring.

I was looking north when the sky lit up like a lightening bolt hit and when I turned around and looked up I just caught the fireball and a small trail after it.
