Initial Reports

11 March 2013 - Lisa, Cape May, New Jersey, USA, around 4:45 am EST
I saw it for 2 seconds through a window facing southwest. It went straight down. It was white/blue color and as bright as the moon. It looked like a huge shooting star.

2-3 seconds duration. North-south, from my left to right. I was facing south. It was low on the southern horizon and green in color. As bright as the moon. Awesome!
11 March 2013 - Elizabeth Sanford, Germantown, Maryland, USA approx 04:35 EST (DST)
Not longer than 3 seconds duration. I was facing roughly southbound in my (moving) vehicle. The start/stop location seemed very low in the sky, and moved from North to South-Southeast. Its color was a bright whitish blue. No sound that I was able to hear, as I was in a car with the windows rolled up. It was very bright, brighter than Venus; as bright as the moon on some nights. I saw a little bit of fragmentation, just as it was trailing off. Most notable to me, a novice, was how low in the sky it seemed, and how much larger it was compared to others I've seen over the years.
11 March 2013 - Angie, Capon Bridge, West Virginia, USA 04:35 EDT
3-4 seconds duration. East-Southeast direction. White/blue color. Very bright, like the moon. There was a flash right before it reached the surface.
11 March 2013 - Rob Lucketts, Virginia 04:38 EST
3 seconds duration. N-S direction of travel. Occurred east of my location. It was a bright white color, as bright as the moon. It looked like a small piece separated at the end. It looked like a firework after it exploded, but the debris fell back to earth as one piece.
11 March 2013 - Heather Rohrersville, Maryland, United States 04:36 EST
2 seconds duration. I was facing east, looked like it fell behind the mountain, so it was traveling east? It was a bluish green color and gave off no sound. It was brighter than the moon, but not as bright as the sun. I saw it just before it disappeared.
11 March 2013 - Rich Ivy, Virginia, USA 04:35
10 seconds duration. North to South direction. It was a red color with a white tail. As bright as Venus.
