Other over Coker, AL

The report, as filed

At 4:00 A.M. my dog woke me up barking and licking me. She never does that and I thought maybe she had to go out. We walked out my front door and I noticed a bright, glowing, orange, bell-shaped object across the street over my neighbor's house towards the NW. It glowed a vibrant red/orange color and was reflective. It was very low between 100-200 feet from the groud. It was cloudy and a little bit foggy that morning and it was well below the cloud-deck and above the fog. It hovered silently and distored the air. It was unusualy quiet outside. My dog was jerking me around on the leash trying to get back inside. (She is a service dog.) The object had a dome with several porthole-like windows around it. It looked to have what appeared to be a dark ring around the tower of it.. It had large orange lights on the dome section and a pattern of orange lights circling the base of it. I took two pictures and decided to take my dog inside because I was going to try and get better footage of it and when I came back it had left and I could see a small orange light far in the distance towards the NW. I was inside no longer than 10 seconds. It left very quickly. I sat outside for a brief time incase it came back. It never did. When the craft was present and for a brief time after it left the street light was flickering.
