Initial Reports:
20SEP2012 PKelly Auburn, nh, USA 22:40:00 2sec N-E Brite white and orange bright firework like Yes Twin tails

20SEP2012 Todd James Portsmouth, RI, USA 2245 EST 4 to 5 seconds South to North Initially white, turned orange, then turned greenish-blue as it got low on horizon Like a flare but definately not a flare. Yes, from the "ball" itself. The tail was approximately 5 times longer than the ball itself. The tail remained a bright white even though the ball changed color.  Was definately not the typical "shooting star".

Email:
Massachusetts fireball
My wife and daughter just got home. About 15 minutes ago, around 0230
UTC, while driving to the north on a road aligned north/south, they
saw an extremely bright fireball pass overhead from south to north,
disappearing below the northern horizon in front of them. They
described is as bright white, brighter than a full moon, large in
appearance, leaving what appeared to be a smoke trail. The
observation was made at approximately 71 deg 10.5 min W 42 deg 6 min
N. They perceived the light from behind them before sighting the
meteor as it passed overhead. It was moving somewhat slowly. Duration
of the passage was approximately 15 seconds.
It would likely have also been visible in New Hampshire.
