Large yellow ball with teardrop bottom encased in a blue light.

Was taking out the trash, I looked up at exactly the moment a yellowish white teardrop-shaped ball encased in blue light fell from the sky. It was in the North to Northwest part of the sky. Looked as if it were over the street perpendicular to mine. There was no noise. It came and went so fast that I can't remember if it had a tail on it or not. I half believe it might have because at first, I thought someone was setting off one of those fireworks that fall. Only there was no noise and there was only one very large ball not lots of them like fireworks. It only lasted about a minute before there was no longer a sign of it. It was falling so fast. I don't think it was a tail as much as it was a trail behind it. The object was very bright and luminous. From the ground, it appeared to be larger than a basketball in the sky and large enough to catch my attention as it was falling or descending. Tonight, there were a lot of clouds in the sky. The firey ball did not seem to come from really high in the sky and it did not seem to fall to the ground. It was so pretty. No picture was taken.
