exploding star the object went from a faint to a very bright colour

At 23:11 on this date I saw what I believe was an exploting Star. It was in the northern sky North of the big dipper about 2 degrees west and about 15 degrees above the horizon. It appeared only for about 2 seconds. It certainly looked like a star exploded and burnt out. No fallout was seen. I don't know much about these things, but if there were telescopes looking that way they must have seen it. Was it an exploding Star?
