Another fireball sighting in Lake Wales, FL

On the evening of 8/23/2013 my wife and I once again observed an orange fireball decending in the vicinity of our house.

As with our previous fireball sighting, it occured on an over cast night.

The fireball was noticed first by my wife as we walked out onto our back porch. The object was pulsing slowly and without rhythm and it appeared to be decending as it headed in an E/SE direction.

The time was 10:08 PM.

This is the third time we've witnessed one of these fireballs. We look at the sky every night and these objects are very unusual. If anyone knows what they are I'd love to hear it.
