darkoshi | Perseid

I saw a very bright light in the sky (descending, moving too fast to be a plane) right around 11pm. But it was behind the cedar tree (I had seen the light thru its branches), so I couldn't see it well. In the few moments it took me to scoot sideways to see the sky behind the tree, it was gone. I checked if there are any meteor showers active, and I think it must have been a Perseid because it was towards the northeast.

It must have been a very very bright one for me to see it so brightly from here in this light-congested area.
