Full description of event/sighting: I walked
out of our house onto the west-facing porch to turn off our Christmastime
lights. We live in a "dark-sky" neighborhood along Highway 91.
There was a light ground fog in the area at
the time and a fairly low cloud cover that had parted for a clear view to the
north. An emergency-services vehicle was not visible, but apparently
parked on a street to the northwest, with it’s blue-red lights flashing,
possibly in response to earlier launches of aerial fireworks. There were no
fireworks activities at 10:30 p.m.
But I saw through the parted cloud cover
eight very bright red lights to the north-northeast. They were flying, or
drifting, with little or no noise, above the altitude of the cloud cover in
pairs but in staggered lines.
I called my wife outside to also view the
formation. (The lights reminded me of nighttime helicopter flights from west of
Interstate 15 along the northern base of the San Gabriel/San Bernardino
Mountains, in Southern California's High Desert, toward MCAS Twentynine Palms;
these New Year's Eve lights' heading was oriented south toward Hill Air Force
Base.)
After going back inside, I went outside again
about 5 minutes later to see that the lead pair or pairs had disappeared above
my overhead cloud cover and the trailing pairs were still rising or approaching
closer on a steady course.
They emitted no or slight
rotor/engine sounds, especially dampened by the weather conditions. I
was not able to identify the aircraft or objects displaying the lights.
Thank you to the
witness for the report.
