Was around 10p PT on Fri night. A white-hot ball with a yellow-orange tail streak caught my attention, seemingly low for a meteor but maybe that's because it was so bright (there were only a few wispy high clouds visible against the night sky). Moved SW to NE, the roof edge of the garage gave it perspective. My friend heard my wow, looked up just in time to catch just the tail before it was gone. No sound. Amazing! Never saw one so clear and bright before.
