Fire/light ball in Florida night sky

I was driving down Rt. 41 in Port Charlotte, FL heading South last night when a fireball with a fire tail appeared in the sky above the traffic light 3 traffic lights down in the distance. It appeared to have been falling, or moving in a fast, downward curved motion and then disappeared just above the traffic light. It was rather large, so I did not think it was a shooting star, and it looked more yellow-white in color, much like a light bulb.
