White light above cloud cover speed about 3000 mph; the fiery ball desending at a rate of 50 mph.

DRIVING HOME FROM SURVEYING JOB IN WEST VIRGINA AT NIGHTIME HEADING EAST TO BALTIMORE; 
THE 3 OF US WITNESSED A BRIGHT WHITE LIGHT ABOVE LOW SOLID CLOUD COVER HEADING EAST TO WEST FROM DC.  WE SAW THE OBJECT FROM THE EASTERN HORIZON COMING AT US WITH EXTREME SPEED, PASSING OVER OUR HEADS.
I BLURTED OUT "UFO".  I LOOKED WEST, BUT I DID NOT SEE THE OBJECT.  I SEEMED TO SENSE AN ALIEN PRESENSE IN MY MIND.  
THIRTY SECONDS LATER THE ONE WITNESS WHO WAS DRIVING ROSE HIS ARM AND POINTED HIS FINGER AT A FIERY BALL DESCENDING FROM THE LOW CLOUD COVER, COMING STRAIGHT DOWN VERY SLOWLY.   I SAW IT TOO!  
WHERE THE OBJECT SEEMED TO LAND JUST ON THE FAR EAST SIDE  OF MOUNTAIN RIDGE, STRAIGHT AHEAD OF US ABOUT ONE MILE AHEAD.  
THE FOOFIGHTER, SEEMED TO BE ABOUT 1,000 FEET IN DIAMETER;  WITH NO FIERY TAIL; A RED ORANGE BALL OF FUSION PLASMA.
We cannot certify that this is a serious-minded report.  PD
