blue streak lit the sky in a slow glide to the west

One thing I'm puzzled about is others described the trajectory as north to south, and the color as orange.

Were there multiple meteors at about the same time? If it was a single meteor, the color may have changed as the outer layers burned off and/or the temp cooled.

Now I'm very curious. I live in Eastern Washington and tonight about 10:30 PM my brother-in-law and I were out on the deck and saw what appeared to be a rather large meteorite streaking low, east to southwest, and trailing blue sparks. We both thought it was the biggest meteorite we'd seen and it sure looked like it was going to hit ground before it burned out.
