It was a little smaller than the size of stop light in the sky. Pretty darn big for something like that streaking through the darkness. Not like a falling star at all. Wasn't traveling nearly as fast as those. Looked like it would have landed somewhere between Chowchilla and Merced. But really hard to tell. Was still in the air when the fire went out.
