There was a real smoker of a meteor in SW Arizona last night right before sundown. It left a trail of smoke that lasted at least 5 minutes before it got too dark to see it anymore. The vertical smoke trail did not distort or seem to move at all after the meteor flashed into a bright white/yellow light. This leads me to believe that the meteor got pretty low, before it burned out.

That was Wesley Clark's presidential campaign re-entering the atmosphere.

When I was sailing my sailboat back from England in 1978 we had one come in at night when we were between the Canaries and the BVI's. I was below deck and the sky lit up like someone was shinning a spot light on the boat. It was quite a sight.
