Saw one around Mechanicsville Maryland around the same time 9:30. Green on the outside burning orange in the center with a tail looked like it was travelling SW . Lasted about 2 to three seconds then dropped behind the trees. Thought it was a roman candle at first but had no arc and tail was towards the sky. My son and I both saw it.

Saw one tonight. 9:30pm, Eldersburg, MD.

Additional Information:

It was a white ball shape, lasted only seconds before it went behind some trees. We noticed it’s appearance fairly low to the ground and it fell straight down, not particularly fast, but we only saw it for a second or two max, before it disappeared behind some trees.

Time: 5:49 a.m.

I was on my way to work on Tuesday, 14 December 2010 at 0549 EST traveling on Route 3 east towards Fredericksburg about 6-7 miles West of Fredericksburg, approximate coordinates 38°18’N 77°37’W, and I saw a bright meteor with a fire trail below and about 10° east of Venus which was at an altitude of 22° and an azimuth of 127°.

The object was probably at an altitude of 10° and an azimuth of 115° when I first saw it and it traveled in an southeasterly direction (going down and to the left from my perspective)

It lasted for 2-3 seconds and was very bright, it was brighter than Venus and also I could almost discern a visible disk with the bright gas/flame trailing by about 2°-3°. I was wondering if anyone else had seen it and came across your website and the report http://unitedstatesufo.blogspot.com/2010/12/yellow-ball-of-lights-fall-from-sky.html

I don’t know if what I saw is related to that report, what I saw was definitely a large meteor/fireball.

Date: November 9, 2010
Time: Late afternoon.

Hello, 11/9/10, I just read about this sighting this morning, because I saw something yesterday late afternoon that made me want to research and see if anyone saw it yesterday as well. I saw something in the sky similar to what the person saw in the story below.

I was on the Blue Line train heading north on the way back from work and noticed a bright long white streak in the sky out the window. It was west, northwest in the sky. At first I thought it could be a thin cloud, but the sky was clear yesterday and I noticed there wasn't any other cloud in the sky like that. Since the train was also moving I couldn't tell how fast or if this object was moving as well.

I just thought it was weird because it was the only thing in the air, it was not a plane, and I also saw those east and can easily identify the planes, but could not identify this. Perhaps it was a meteor or comet? Not sure, but I think one can only see those clearly with a telescope, and I was looking with my naked eye.

I figured it wouldn't hurt to email and let you know that my sighting was similar to the sighting below. It was strange.
