I was driving west on 1-10. I'm not exactly sure of my location when I witness the "fireball". My time should be pretty accurate. I wrote down the time shortly after it happened. Please update me if it was anything interesting. I drive a big rig cross country and this is the first time I've been relatively certain the fast moving light in the sky wasn't an airplane or some lights reflecting off my windshield. Thanks again and hope my info helps:)
