This is the second fireball I have seen this month. I didn't report the first one. It was about a week and a half to 2 weeks ago. That one was much bigger and brighter with flames around it and was moving Southeast to Northwest. Both sightings seem to have been on fire. I have a tendency to sit out on my elevated deck at night just watching the night sky.
