Lake Stevens, WA
10 year old son startled by flash of light when he looks at the dark sky throw the window he sees yellow sphere moving in medium speed moving left to right then suddenly stopped and moved back left to right and disappeared in the starless sky. He had images of the celestial body burned in his memory to the point of when I asked for details he would close his eyes to revisit the sight. I fully believe he saw an UFO, he has no idea of the peculiarities of saucers and usual concepts that he happened to frenetically describe. Would love to know if others saw the event.

Yakima, WA
Approximately 2am in the morning, I and others I know awoke to a very large mechanical sound with vibrations coming from the sky. The vibrations were so powerful, the house was shaking similar to minor earthquake. Both myself, my wife, and others that I have spoken to also witnessed (heard) the event. The event lasted 5-7 minutes. After going outside to see what the sound was, there was nothing visible creating the sound and vibrations. I have spoken to several others that witnessed (heard) the event at several locations in the Upper and Lower Yakima Valley. I am an aircraft pilot and have flown and been in many types of planes, and this sound was not from any piston, turbine or jet engine. People described the sound as if standing next to the launch pad of a rocket. I have spoken to others that stated similar event occurred 10 days earlier on 11/1/2019. In an attempt to record a future event, video cameras (on hillside overlooking valley and pointed to sky) have been set to start recording upon loud sound and will hopefully record any future event.

I was walking the along the Columbia River and viewed a very bright white light stationary in the sky over Portland; it was low & bright enough to reflect off the river. I noticed it for about a half an hour, a mist surrounded it and then it just blended into the mist & disappeared, it was a clear night. I have a picture that I will submit

Seattle, WA
Bright white light flying east from west side of the Puget Sound. The bright light flew in a straight line toward and over West Seattle. There was no flash and I could hear no sound. While I did get video, the quality was poor, as it was dark. I could not make out an actual shape.

Bright almost neon green light danced around in the sky the suddenly dropped down toward the ground close to the Yakima firing center. It moved faster than any aircraft I have seen and in such way planes couldn’t maneuver.

Blue circle with ring around it, headed south. Saw for 3 seconds, and it was traveling fast. Felt like the height was similar to a drone; however it did not look like a drone or any other airplane that passed by the house. All it did was wiz south of my house and feñt much much lower than I plane could Fly.

4 round looking lights, flashing multiple colors, all very low. They were in a vertical line, not moving besides the flashing. The top one started to move away but would come back in line. They stayed there for a couple hours.

Tacoma, WA
There was one saucer spotted at 1:30 a m in the south Eastern sky. It appeared to be a silver disk spinning with lights changing colors emitting from the middle of the disk. It moves extremely slow and stayed in the same spot for almost 10 minutes. It began to rise and get further away then it slowly returned back towards us again and began to rise again then seemed to get further away. We could tell it was not a helicopter or a airplane. It was a disk or saucer. It appearedto be silver with multiple color lights in between two top and bottom saucers. it had blue, green, yellow and red lights in between. The lights were spinning different speed than the saucer. It made no sound at all. Ive taken some video and a couple pictures with my phone. Unfortunately it doesn't show great detail.

harrington, WA
Returning home to Harrington from Spokane passed milepost 122 and noticed a bright light to the west. Thought it could be a planet because it was so bright but was too close for a planet. Stayed in the same spot and then suddenly it was gone. We looked around and it was nowhere to be seen.

Friday Harbor, WA
Three lights, all moving at the same speed so they’re not separate planes. Moving super fast. Looked with binoculars, couldn’t see anything besides the three lights. Underneath, there was a plane moving much slower than the unidentified aircraft. Moved incredibly quickly and went out of view in the span of ~2 minutes.

Sammamish, WA
My roommate and I were sitting on the porch and saw two objects flying high in the western sky. We noticed them because they were flying in perfect formation and at high altitude which is odd for aircraft. We both watched with amazement, and after 5 seconds I started to doubt they were anything out of the ordinary until they both turned simultaneously toward outer-space and vanished. I am still stunned at what I saw since we watch the planes and flight patterns on a nightly basis. Just after all of this happened, I went to my room and a very loud (perhaps military) helicopter flew over my house and toward the UFO location, which was unusual as well.

Lynnwood, WA
me and my 2 bodies were in a parking lot smoking. me and my buddy were on the car facing one way and my other buddy was facing us. we saw a white light moving and thought it was a shooting star, but then it started going faster, then we realized the white light was the center if something circular. i know it wasnt a star, cus it changed speed and turned i to a red orb, and i saw a force field around it and it sort of glitxhes away, and disappeared, but i think it took off at an insane speed and thats what i saw.

Vancouver, WA
At approximately 2030 at the cross streets of Watson and 28th within the Fourth Plain Village neighborhood in the city of Vancouver, WA, my mother, daughter and I observed a solid blue light traveling NNE. At first, as it was off in the distance about ½ Mile away and with very good visibility on a very clear evening, I thought it was moving due east until I noticed it getting larger. It was a larger light compared to common drone lighting but was only blue and bright until it got closer when it became a slightly whiter version of the same blue color. It was low, at what I guessed would be about 300 feet but made no sound except a very low hissing noise. We observed it go right overhead about 200 feet east of our position of observation in my mother's driveway. The total time of observation was approximately 60-90 seconds.

Port Angeles, WA
I was driving when at 20:24 PST I noticed a large bright object in the Southeast sky with a lot of red and also some white light. It was shaped like an upside down right trapezoid or a tweaked sideways parallelogram and as I was wondering satellite or maybe a planet that was really close. I then noticed three smaller lights (2 white/yellow and 1 green) just to the left (east) of the large light. They were too far apart to be a single aircraft and too big to be stars. The smaller ones were kind of blinking when suddenly they each moved separately crazy fast towards the west and then they all completely disappeared???? Poof no sign of them. I only saw it for a minute or two as I was driving towards it so, no idea how long it was there.

Shoreline, WA
I immediately went inside to get my husband. He saw the same thing. As we were standing out there watching it, we saw more details. There seemed to be lights in the center that were circulating. These were red, white and blue in color. We also saw lights blinking at different points on the triangle in irregular patterns. Sometimes the light would get brighter in the center and the go outwards to the points. After watching it for about an hour, off to the right a bright light jetted across the sky at lightning speed toward the triangle. After seeing this, I looked around and saw several more triangles directly above where we were and an additional one very close to the larger triangle. They all had a similar appearance to the larger one. Just after seeing all of these object I saw what seemed to be small balls of light leaving from the points of the large triangle The large triangle and the smaller ones did not seem to move at all for a good hour. We came inside for a little bit and when we went back out I could still see the large object but it had moved and I could not see it as well as it was obscured by the trees. The smaller triangles were no longer in the sky. We saw a lot last night.

Redmond, WA
Looking up in the sky we saw a shape silently moving north through the sky below the cloud cover. It seemed straight but there appeared to be a shallow angle to it at times so I would characterize it as a shallow chevron. It was a uniform color and was dimly colored as though it was reflecting some moonlight, perhaps a mid to dark gray color. It was utterly silent and moving at a consistent bearing and speed. There were no lights on it whatsoever. It was very difficult to spot and we lost track of it after a bit over a minute.

Auburn, WA
On Thursday, 17th of October, 2019 around 6:25 AM (Pacific Time), I spotted a translucent, whiteish light (looked like a crystal ball) traveling south to north at around 2,500 ft at a fast and steady pace. I see airplanes and jets all the time, due to living close to Auburn airport, and being within the flight path(s) of Seatac International airport, and this was something I haven’t seen before. I’m not sure of the speed, but it was faster than the pace of private jets and planes that I see on many occasions at around the same altitude.

MULTIPLE UFO SIGHTING October 12, 2019 20:19 HOURS UNIVERSITY PLACE, WASHINGTON This evening while taking out the trash I and my wife observed numerous objects, all shaped the same, low in the Eastern sky traveling slowly from North to South with slowly pulsating white lights and a reddish glow around the perimeter. As our house is situated on a Western downhill slope facing the Puget Sound the objects seemed to rise into view from the North and proceed in a relatively quick manner to the South. The objects made no sound that could be discerned from our location. As the objects proceeded South, they would eventually dim and disappear. It was a quiet evening with clear skies with a high ceiling. Where we live is near Joint Base Lewis McChord and we are very familiar with the various aircraft that fly in the area skies and the sounds associated with the aircraft used by the base. These objects were not rotary or fixed wing aircraft using the regular flight paths as when they do there IS a discernable sound that can be heard for many miles. If the objects were a considerable distance away then their transit from North to South was pretty rapid and their disappearance was as though they went into a cloud bank however, after discussing the disappearance with my wife, we both agreed that they faded and blinked out. This event lasted for about 10-12 minutes and consisted of approximately 25, to as high as 30 objects. I took two still photographs and nearly three minutes of video of the event. I thought that I had captured more of the event unfortunately, when I switched from camera to video, I neglected to start the recording. I am a retired Firefighter/Paramedic and very used to seeing unusual things, events or situations and accurately documenting my observations. This is a first for my wife and me. We hope that this was not some kind of hoax perpetrated in celebration of Halloween resulting in a colossal waste of time and resources.

Puyallup, WA
Driving north on Meridian from Graham, we saw three lights in a triangle formation above the horizon (puyallup area). One was brighter and a bit bigger than the other two. We kept track of them as long as we could until they left our view. As far as we know they didnt move. The bigger of the three did suddenly change and get dimmer about 7 minutes in to us keeping track of it.

Seattle, WA
ALMOST DIRECTLY OVERHEAD IN LATE AFTERNOON CLEAR SKY CONDITIONS WE OBSERVED AN EQUILATERAL TRIANGLE OF DIMLY VISIBLE LIGHTS AND A SIMILAR SINGLE LIGHT SOME DISTANCE AWAY FROM IT. THE OBJECTS WERE MOVING SLOWLY ON A SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST TRACK. THE SINGLE LIGHT VANISHED FIRST. THE THREE-LIGHT TRIANGLE REMAINED VISIBLE FOR A MINUTE OR SO LONGER, CONTINUING ITS NORTHEASTERLY DRIFT BEFORE VANISHING IN THE SAME WAY THE FIRST ONE HAD. BY THIS I MEAN IT JUST WENT OUT AS THOUGH AN "OFF" SWITCH HAD BEEN THROWN. THIS EVENT OCCURRED AT THAT THE EXACT TIME THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION WAS PASSING OVER SEATTLE BUT THE APPARENT MOTION OF THE OBJECTS WAS NOT NEARLY THE SAME AS THAT OF THE ISS WHICH MOVES FROM THE NORTHWEST TO THE SOUTHEAST. THE ISS WAS NOT VISIBLE TO US ON THAT PASS DUE TO THE DAYLIGHT BUT I DID SEE IT ON ITS NEXT PASS TO THE WEST BECAUSE IT WAS DARK BY THEN.

Battle Ground, WA
I saw 6 star like dots vertical 3 in a row vertical and 3 parallel to the othe other 3 vertical. I saw it by the north star at first looked like a cluster of stars but I saw it move from close to the north star to east of the sky in the few minutes until I showed somebody else. The lights on each side would blink. One on the left side would go dark then one on the right side would and then the opposite side would light back up again. It was barely visible when it was close to the north star but when it went east it got really bright and very noticable.

Sequim, WA
Red fireball type object seen at height of low flying aircraft. Silent. It made no sound. It flew at a moderate speed and stopped and hovered just after an asteroid burned out in front of it. It hovered for a few seconds, and the flew sideways into a cloud.

RE: UFO? in Seattle I was out on the porch looking south at the moon, and thought at first that I was looking at a star. It was to the left of the moon. As I was looking around at the stars around the moon, I realized this was moving west. It looked like one of the other stars, with the same white-bluish color, there was no flashing or any change in color or any trace behind its movement. As I was watching it travel, at that distance must have been going close to warp speed :), its light just vanished into deep space. It simply disappeared. UFO? or what? It was not a plane for sure, nor a satellite as the light just vanished. I'd like to know if anyone else saw this. (Oct. 6, 2019 8:10pm)
