I am just wondering if this is what I had seen or if it was a meteor or what. the blueish green head and red tail was really odd to me. I never seen one that close. it came in at an angle about 38 degrees .

Remarks
I was heading north bound on Clayton Rd. In the distance about 1/4 mile ahead saw a bright blueish fireball with redish green tail. It lasted for about 3 or 4 secs then vanished or burnt out.
