Both my husband and I saw it but he only caught tail end of it. We were in the car heading south-ish I was in front passenger seat. Have seen a few meteor showers and fireball events. Today checked assuming others saw it but didn’t see any reportings. Was quite a spectacular strong one. Compared to others seemed low or perhaps meaning further out on horizon. Must have been east to us
Could have been 2-3 seconds I choose 1-2 knowing the experience can feel longer than reality.
We were driving to friends for dinner so my time period is very close but not sure if exact. Was sure when I checked the site I would see other reporting for Friday 15 November Was surprised I am first to report this siting. Thank you for all you do Was quite bright and beautiful
