Neighbor has security video of the flash - I hope to receive that tomorrow and send it in. I had just let the dog out and closed the door when the flash occurred. Dog immediately ran back to the door.

Remarks
Seemed to leave a smoke type look - I immediately texted a neighbor who has security cameras to see if he picked it up. His cameras are not pointed up but he did capture the bright flash and after effects. He is going to send me the video.

The object seemed to explode after it streaked across the horizon. It seemed so low I at first thought a firework was going off and going to hit my across the street neighbor’s house.
