Bright, fast moving, orange grow is the northern night sky in western New York.

Leaving my house to walk my dog i immediately saw a bright orange glow in the northern sky. I assume it was over Lake Ontario nased on its dostance. It was so bright at first i thought a plane exploded, but didn't see actual fire. It looked like it changed altitude and depth instantly. Then just got fainter and more distant slowly.
