Shape: Fireball

At about 9:30 I was outside my house it was dark no moon venus was south in sky, when looking northwest towards Mt Roberts I noticed a large orange light. It was just above horizon and just to the south of the mt peak. I would estimate if I held my arm out it was as big as my thumbnail. I moved to the side to get a better view and the object had dissappeared I went back inside and told my wife, it was reported to local dispatch that night. When I read blotter in Tobacco Valley News and it was same direction and time.
