One over Colorado on Thanksgiving morning, as well. May have been 100 times brighter than the full Moon. I've only recorded three fireballs this bright in 20 years. Exploded high, and over rough terrain, so not much hope of finding any surviving material. But an impressive event.

Apparently quite audible along the coast north of Gothenburg, Sweden.
Visible from most of southern Sweden, southern Norway and Denmark
desipite cloudy conditions most places.

Shallow angle, possibly around 13 km/s entry speed.  It went to sea,
though.
