Was hoping to catch a Leonid outburst and maybe a late Taurid....
I did not see the beginning of this slowly moving fireball...just saw the last 5 or so seconds from the time it was about 15 to 20 deg elevation (at about azimuth 315) until it diappeared into the far away tree line (about 2 deg elevation) at azimuth 325. Thought it may have been a late Taurid fireball at first, but seems to fit with the small asteroid event over Ontario. Nice white/green color too before it reddened (presumably from being so low in the sky).
