Craft came down from clouds and hovered above trees, no sound, covered with large lights, one blinking light underneath, very large craft

My boyfriend saw it first and started running down the street and hid behind a rock.  He told me to stand there and look up in the sky.  I thought he was pulling my leg because he was somewhat of a comedian.  I stood in the middle of the road and looked up at the sky.  Down came a huge craft from the low clouds.  It was covered in lights - large lights - like the kind you see on football fields.  I tried to make the shape out but because of the lights it was impossible to see what the shape of the craft was.  It made no sound and seemed to tilt.  It went back up into the clouds and disappeared.  That night on the radio it was announced that people had seen a meteor go from Vermont to Virginia.
