It was the largest meteor I ever saw. It lit up the sky about like a huge firework display. It appeared to be heading NE towards the SW. If you hold your hand out it was about the size of a dime in your fingers. It was a bluish color with hues of green with a green tail. There was no sound at all. My wife spotted it and got my attention and I view it for about 2 seconds so I guess it lasted about 3 to 4 seconds.
