There were several other reports of meteor or fireball sightings on WBAP radio in the DFW Metroplex early on 3/24 around 4:00 AM or so but most of those seemed to be in the eastern sky from the reportings I heard.

Observation
Yes
Remarks
I walked outside and noticed what I at first thought was a helicopter over my barn in the northwest sky. It appeared to be about as bright as a light on the outside of my barn and was a blue-greenish color that appeared to be descending almost straight down. A slight train then appeared and lengthened slightly and was a yellowish white that suddenly looked like sparks on the end as the fireball disappeared behind my barn whose roof appears probably 5 degrees above the horizon from where I stood.
