It was a fast blue, green and white ball of flame shooting from east to north, that then just was gone. It appeared to be traveling at about a 20 degree trajectory toward the horizon. It went across my path and seem to just disappear some distance from land. I would have normally thought this was just a meteorite except for the color and it reminded me of the missles that I saw on television during the bombing of Bagdag at the time of the first gulf war.
