The sky was just beginning to show a hint of daybreak so likely better seen at Seattle or Vancover/BC  2 days ago I thought I saw a short/brief one at the same spot but I assumed it was just reflection of lights off my glasses and windshield, chilly outside. I will try to keep a camera at the ready tonight.
