Agreed that the brightness is consistent with a flare, but the rest of the report probably is not.

I agree: this cannot have been a NEO.

General west to east movement and fading description fits a satellite.

It can't have been the ISS by the way, given the time.

But there are quite a number of other satellites than can flare to well
into the negative magnitudes.
