I live in the city.
It was very bright, left a trail and had to pass exactly where it did for me to see it. I was facing almost due West and it "blazed a path" from North to South. Amazing!

The meteor burned a path with a trail the entire length of my sighting until I lost sight of it behind a 60 foot holly tree.
