Myself and a passenger saw the fireball while driving on the highway. It lasted for only a couple seconds, streaking down across the sky near the horizon and ending in a green flash. It was beautiful.

Streaked for about 2 seconds. Then got really bright and green at the end. I was in my car. I don’t know the exact time, but it was approximately midnight.
