The report, as filed

On December 7, 2017, around 8:00 pm, I was watching TV when my dog, who rarely barks, perked her head up looked around and gave a few short little barks. I got up and peeked out the door, I didn’t see anything. I went upstairs where it was dark as no lights were on and looked out a window to the north. I saw three bright orange (almost like fire) round shapes moving to the north. They were very close together and the center one was slightly higher. I saw a shiny metallic outline (irregularly shaped) around the balls and a grate or grid appearance around the outside the edge of each ball (like a burner). It was moving slowly into the clouds and the clouds were glowing orange all around it. Just to the right of it, another spot in the clouds was glowing orange as if another bright light had just moved into the clouds. I watched it move away until it and the orange glow completely disappeared.
