Blue Light Streaks Accross the South Texas Sky

Saw what appeared to be a bright blue (almost neon) streaking across the sky while fishing in the early morning hours. My son saw it first and called it to my attention. I would have noticed the after effect as it appeared to go behind a lone cloud and explode. The night sky lit up to the point the ground was fairly lit up. Did not hear any sound and it was not lightning. Very interesting.
