RemarksI was driving north on I83, about 10-15 miles south of York PA when I saw it. The light caught my eye, and I noticed a fairly bright, white fireball falling with a streak behind it. As it was falling, it faded a bit, then seemed to "reignite" briefly before disappearing. All within approximately a 5 seconds duration.
