Another one peaking much, much brighter than the full moon last night:

Apparently quite audible along the coast north of Gothenburg, Sweden.
Visible from most of southern Sweden, southern Norway and Denmark
desipite cloudy conditions most places.

Shallow angle, possibly around 13 km/s entry speed. It went to sea,
though.
