Firey cigar shaped stationary object, in daylight near Chico, Ca.

Monday Dec 16, 2019 I was driving from Red Bluff into Los Molinos on Hwy 99 e. I don't know why I looked up but when I did I saw something odd annd out of place in the distant sky toward Chico. There appeared to be a slender cigar shaped item sitting still at a 4:00/10:00 angle. It looked like a small slice of fire in the sky. Cigar shaped is the best way I can explain it. And the color was odd, as it looked like a candles flame, red orangish and yellow colors moving randomly (like the flame of a candles colors would move.) NOT like blinking lights or anything. At first I thought it may be the sun peeping out from clouds but there were no clouds, or anything else in the sky for that matter. I watched this for about 5 miles until I made my turn on Butler Ave. I then lost sight of it because of the obstruction of the trees on that street. When I finished my errand and got back on the Hwy 99E, it was no longer there... just an empty cloudless sky. My neighbor insisted I report this. I don't know what it was, but never seen anything like it.
