Bright light about 30 degree off the southern horizon that appeared to shoot up almost instantly.

At approx 12:05 pm on 11/30/21 as I was driving south on a road I drive everyday I saw a bright object about 30 degrees off the horizon. It looked almost like a streak coming off of it as though it was traveling west to east but as I saw it it wasn't moving. As I reached to try to grab my phone to take picture since I thought it was interesting enough to show the wife I saw out of the corner of my eye instantly shoot up and there was nothing left. At first I thought it might be a comet but since it appeared to go up I knew that couldn't be it and as I saw it there didn't appear to be any movement. Also there is a small to midsized airport about half a mile west from where I was, but the object wasn't near there and there is no small plane, or large for that matter, that could be gone in an instant like this appeared to. Also I know it wasn't Venus since I see that when I drive home from work everyday this time of year at about the same height off the horizon, but Venus is about 15 degrees to the west from where this was. Plus I've never seen it at 12 o'clock in the afternoon. To say this is a UFO only in the literal sense that it was unidentified to me, but it seemed odd enough to find a reporting sight.
