I'm not an astronomer but was looking for reports of the fireball last night and came across this. I was out walking on the great sugarloaf in Wicklow and spotted the fireball last night. Visible for 3 to 4 seconds. Based on the time here (9:54) (I hadn't recorded but thought about 10), I was at location 53.16174, -6.15258. The fireball was at about 19 degrees ESE from my location (above Kindlestown Hill), descending almost straight down, but a little northwards (possibly 5 degrees from vertical). While there was yellow at the tip and orange behind it, I would have said it was predominantly red and flamey in colour/texture, and was clearly breaking apart as it (quite slowly) descended. Sorry no video :(
