Had one of those streak over my place some 20 odd years ago. Loud roaring sound and very bright burning ball. Appeared to be the size of a basketball flying overhead.

Well, it is close to peak for the Orionids. They got a big one.

Maybe it was that 22 meter wide asteroid 2017 TD6?

Maybe it was the Chinese satellite(space station test unit) that they said could burn up in the atmosphere any day now.

Some 30 years ago I was driving in the middle of the night in the middle on nowhere in New Mexico, and saw a bright greenish fireball streak across the sky, about as bright as the Moon.
I'll likely never see a better one.
