We were in our car at the time so only saw the fireball as it came into my view through the windshield. I am guessing it was visible through more of the sky than what I was viewing looking forward in my car. I must also caution that the colors I saw were through my windshield which ( as many are) tinted in the top portion. Ironically I have seen other desciptions of this event (elpasoallsky) describing the color as green and wonder if they are also looking through a windshield.
