3 bright red lights seen traveling over Shasta Lake City then suddenly disappearing one right after the other

At 22:05 on March 31, 2016, I was driving SW on Ashby Rd in Shasta Lake City, CA. I looked to the eastern sky and saw a bright red light, traveling west, larger than any aircraft light I had seen before.

All of a sudden a second one appeared following behind the first. At that time I pulled to the shoulder of the road so that I wouldn't lose sight of them. A few seconds later the third one appeared following behind the other two.

I continued to watch as one by one each of them disappeared as they reached the very exact spot I counted approx. ten seconds between each light disappearing.

The bright red lights bring fireball to mind, however, they didn't move exceptionally fast, except in appearing and disappearing
