It was a very large globe-shaped object, very low and very fast, traveling in a very straight line. Color was deep orange-yellow, and the object had a very small tail. I was in the car at a stopsign when the object caught my attention. It disappeared behind a cloudbank before my daughter could see it as well. Temperature was about 55 degrees, high humidity and recent rain, partly to mostly cloudy. Object was to the north of us traveling due east.
