Wenatchee, WA
Two lights seen in the south west evening sky. The lights moved in synchronized fashion. One light appeared to “drop” another light from it. Lights moved together then apart twice at evenly timed intervals. Lights would appear, disappear and appear in different location. Poor quality cell phone video was taken

I saw the object after the fact in a Live Photo I took. The object seems to bounce around in a figure 8 the movements and then burst off out of sight. From my vantage point it was the size of a large star. The object was growing green and seems to have an orb of light around it. When you zoom into the photo you can see the shape looks just like the saucers you tend to see in drawings of UFOs but sideways . If this wasn’t a Live Photo, I would have just thought it was a light but it moves so strangely.

I was with my wife, driving from Kennewick to Seattle. We were having a conversation about a movie we watched the night before. While I looked over to her, I saw an object that was being covered by a cloud. I have never seen a cloud that big and that close to the ground. I pointed it out to my wife and she initially only noticed the cloud. She didn’t think much of it because she’s seen a single cloud like that before. We looked again and a black funnel came from the back end of the cloud. It looked like a tornado or something that was heading towards the ground. But in the funnel, an object came from within it, like it’s hiding. It reminded me of a scene from the Movie, War of the Worlds, when the aliens traveled through the lighting. The object looked like an aircraft. There wasn’t an explosion or fire and we never actually saw it hit the ground, it was too far away to see while driving away from the scene. Once the cloud released the object, the funnel ret! urned to the cloud and the black portion traveled to the front in and the cloud disappeared.

I think we saw a alien. It was gray and it flew right across front of our car it was the size of a coyote never touched the ground, it did not have wings or lights if I would have blinked I would not have seen it. It was one fluid motion and was gone into the woods and out of sight. My husband was driving and I was a passenger. It was Approximately 3 feet off the ground.

As was reported to my local Mufon chapter office. And it was mentioned by Nuforc but did not include video which I will submit to you. I was out walking as I usually do along the waterfront on December 9, 2020, at about 8:16 pm at the Sinclair Inlet when I looked up and saw an amber sphere which I thought at first was a drone. But as i listened, I could only hear background traffic noise. I tried to tell if it had structure, but it did not. It seemed to notice me noticing it. Still thinking it was a drone and someone was playing a prank, I turned around and started walking the other direction. It seemed to be following me. I turned around to look at it again and it “aflamed” and disappeared. After walking about 50 feet I looked to my left and it seemed to be following me as I walked up the hill. Again, I looked at it and it aflamed and disappeared. I turned around and walked back toward my truck, and again saw the sphere now on my right following along side. I got to my truck and drove off. I was surprised that I was the only one noticing it, no cars stopped to look at it, as you can hear traffic in the background. Very odd. I had the presence of mind to video record the sighting with my iPhone 8 Plus. At one point I zoom in. Has anyone else seen this type of sphere?

I was doing my evening constitutional when I looked up in the sky and saw a large glowing, spinning orange light. I took out my cell and started to video it, while also zooming in. It seemed to notice me as I was filming it. I followed just above me and to my right. At one point the orange spinning object appeared to aflame and then go out completely. As I started walking again I noticed that again the object was following me as I walked around the Sinclair inlet. The object slowly floated away. I thought perhaps it was a drone but there was no sound and no outline of a drone or craft. I noticed on the Mufon site, that Stevie saw the same thing but I was able to video tape my sighting. Thanks!!!!

North bend, WA
I was waiting at the traffic light in town when I looked over to my right, above mailbox peak. What I saw was a very small, "U" shaped cloud-like object. It had sharp points at the top, and was thicker at the bottom, almost what you would expect a dramatic meteor to look like. It was moving so slowly that I at first thought it was a stationary cloudlet. As I continued to look, I noticed it steadily closing the gap between itself and the horizon, and it disappeared over the mountain.. Never seen anything like that before, but I would love an explanation.

Gig Harbor, WA
I witnessed 2 diamond shaped hovering objects, multi colored lights, in the sky's above Purdy, WA. They are either quite small, or very at a very high altitude. Much too high to be drones. They held their hovering location for at least 30 minutes, so they are not satellites. Their shape may have been due to the location of the lights.

Eastern Washington to the right of the moon and is a light flashing many colors like a twinkle of a star but bigger and twinkling faster than a star. I took a photo on my camera and it’s too far for perfect detail but it’s not a star and it looks like a sphere craft with lights blooming around it. A few planes have gone by.

Sekiu, WA
Witnessed a yellow/white glowing roundish shape arching through the sky just over the Straight of Juan De Fiuca approximately 30 - 30 yards off the coast between Sekiu and Neah Bay, WA. The shape appeared to go straight into the water, followed by a brief burst of light outward across the top of the water.

I was looking through my dad's photo album, circa early 1940's. On one page it had pictures of his dog, 4 different pictures. I just happened to look at the picture of his dog taken from the back patio area when I noticed this "disc" above the roof. All the pics in this photo book are in blk and white. This object was taken by some relative of the pet dog and I guess they never noticed this object just to the right of the chimney. Needless to say, all these years nobody has noticed this apperation or entity. It sure got some interest from friends and family. As far as I know my dad's mom and dad lived in a residential area of either Palto Alto or Redwood City, California when growing up. Other pictures of him show a uniform on him during World War II so I am thinking the time frame is between 1940 and 1942. When I first noticed this UFO I asked my wife to look at the picture and I asked her "What is wrong with this picture?" She started looking at the picture and I told her to look on the roof and she noticed the UFO right away. After we both talked about it, I called my twin brother and my older brother and sent a picture to them via phone camera. They, my brothers, didn't really get all that excited when I told them, but when they got the actual picture it was a different story. I look many times at the picture daily and the best description I can give is that it reminds me of a Hershey's Kisses or a Frisbee without the rounded edges. At the very top, the area is darker than the rest of the object, like it is either a shadow or ??. It looks very much to me and other people to look like a typical UFO... Using the chimney and the roof make the object look small, but I am thinking that it might be bigger and further away. As I mentioned before, this is a residential area so other roofs maybe are the same size as my grandmothers house. P.S. All the pictures in this old photo book are laminated and has helped keep a lot of the pictures safe from dirt and scratches. I hope the above description will help in some way to figure out if this is real or something else.

Saw a bright flash that lit up the sky last year in December during a snowfall we were having. As I was looking down at the snow on the ground I saw the flash a little bit on the snow on the ground and then when I looked back up at the sky the whole sky was bright with this big, bright flash. I know this is not a UFO but I just found it interesting and that it looked cool to me. Not sure what the bright flash was, maybe lighting but again not 1000 percent sure if it was lighting or not, could have been something else. No sound even though I was inside the house looking out of the living window. This was in the PM when it was already dark out, 7:00 PM.

Snohomish, WA
Leaving my parents house in the evening after having dinner I got to a part of the road that overlooks the valley and the hill on the other side. At the top of the ridge on the far side I noticed a very bright light hovering about 200’ up approximately over glacier view high school. Initially I thought it might be a helicopter with a directional light but as I drove across the hill towards the highway parallels to the light it did not dim. From this it was clear that it wasn’t directional and was too bright to be a stationary light from that distance. At this point I called my parents and asked them to look out the upper Windows of their house which can see that area in the winter when the leaves are off the trees. They, while on the phone with me confirmed that they could also see the bright light over the ridge line. We ended the call after that. I continued onto highway 9 headed south across the valley from Snohomish towards the light and the high school. As I got to the base of the hill I saw the light quickly move to the west out of sight within 1-2seconds. I had intended on going to where it was hovering to look further but it was gone. While it was there there were at least two other planes in the air near the area as there is a municipal airport in the valley but none seemed interested in the light I saw.

Belfair, WA
While driving through town on my way back home from a hunting trip, I saw what I can only describe as a rather large orange/red, orb for the lack of a better word, moving downward toward the earth. It wasn't dropping from the sky, but rather moving diagonally and downward. I estimated it to be several miles away toward the town of Allen, so between Belfair and Allen I would assume. It wasn't moving fast nor leaving any type of smoke trail. It had to be fairly big, because even though it seemed to be miles away it was still very large in the sky. My best guess would be over 100 yards long, but I may be way off because it all happened so fast. I was in traffic and obviously didn't want to have an accident. When I got to the traffic light it was no longer visible, so I started looking around for other people to see if anyone was looking and/or pointing but nobody was. I texted my hunting partner and told him what I just saw. I just want to know if anyone else in Mason County saw what I did, or maybe someone whom can explain what I saw?

I observed a very bright light almost directly above my house. It was stationary for approximately three to four minutes at an estimated altitude of two thousand feet. It was sporadically partially obscured by clouds which were moving rapidly from south to north. There was no sound. After three or four minutes the light dimmed and split into two lights aligned north and south which slowly moved apart for a few seconds until they were approximately a thumbnail apart at which point they disappeared. I am a retired engineer and scientist in the field of measurement science.

West of Gillette, WA
We were driving down I-90 West bound, between mile marker 95 100, at night when a green light suddenly appeared in the sky and shot down into a field. The UFO seemed to falling. It landed in a field with its light on for a moment, before the light died out and it seemed to disappear. There was only one UFO. The light was a saucer shape before it disappeared. The sky had been completely clear and there was nothing in the way of the sight.

November 2, 2020 7:00pm (approximately) We saw a very fast moving object that was low in the sky and didn’t look like anything we have ever seen before. It was a single, solid white light and was going along the peaks in the mountains 5 miles to the west of Twisp Washington. It was travelling in a southeast direction.

Just a roundish light that hung out at 50,000 to 80,000 feet. I watched it for 45 min then decided to take a few pictures. Didn't move during that time but the light seemed to change shape just a bit.

End one looks to go south out of sight, others just fade away, orange balls blinking, middle one bright white.

A substantially visible, thick, contrail-like plume was following an aircraft-like craft from a low altitude over Puget Sound to a higher altitude, with the plume spreading as it moved. Traveling west to east. It resembled a rocket or missile but was probably too slow to be a missle and was not clear enough to determine with the unaided eye. The bright, wide plume following it partly obscured the back end of the craft. This was not like a normal aircraft plume. It was highly unusual. The path was also unusual (a long arc changing from vertical to horizontal) and the plume was thicker than a normal airplaine. I captured video but parts of it are fuzzy (high contrast from tree silhouettes at sunset) and my viewing angle was not ideal (trees in the way). There is an airport here but this did not appear to originate from the airport. It appeared from Puget Sound or farther west over the ocean. Plume was bright orange due to the sunset effects until it reach a hi! gher more easterly altitude and more easterly trajectory, then it appeared as a normal whitish color. I've never seen anything like it. It did not look like falling satellite debris, it looked like it was self-powered or launched and then self-powered heading east toward eastern Washington State. If I held my finger up when it was traveling upward, it took several seconds for it to reach the other side of my finger. It was more rocket-like than plane-like but I cannot guess what it was. It traveled a considerable distance to the east (this was not a small local phenomenon like fireworks rockets, it was something bigger) and disappeared into the distance.

Looked like stars moving perfectly inline about 10-20 miles apart...there were over 100 + of these...heading north/east... took phone video, but did not come out very well. It was very incredible to see this... for me this is second time seeing a UFO

It looked like the lights were appearing out of onions belt area. Once we noticed them, we saw there were several hundred. We personally saw 50-75 enter. They were in a perfect straight line, perfectly spaced apart maybe an inch to an inch and a half. Heaed east. Over the state of Washington. We noticed a commercial plane closer to use. This is was clearly different.
