Ball of fire falling westward from the sky. It was a circular looking ball of fire falling towards the west. There was just one in the sky. It was burning as it was falling. At first, I thought it was a shooting star but it was too large and too close. I noticed that it looked like it was on fire and realized it was engulfed in flames.
