Hi ChiggaMan.
Might just have seen an 'Earth Grazer'. Fairly slow moving as they just 'skim' the upper atmosphere. Get a real 'orange/red' glow as they slowly heat up. Saw a beaut about 3 yrs ago about 12.15 am, just after Christmas time, travelling west to east, from Sirius towards Scorpius & watched it for more than 30 secs +, before it disappeared out of the earths's atmosphere in the general direction of Antares.
Will never forget that one...Big, slow, almost "lumbering" beast, shedding molten material as it went, colour of lava.....
Pity you had so much cloud that evening. Still, you caught a glimpse & that's the main thing...
