Riverview, FL
I live in Riverview and tonight I was walking my dog and saw something similar to the 8/27/2019 craft witnessed in Tampa Bay. However, the lights were red, did not blink and there were 3 of them. The distance between the first two is not even possible for airplanes except in an airshow. They were all traveling at the same speed in an odd triangle pattern (not an equal distance between the three). Then the light on the first one was gone, then the second and then the third. From lights on to lights off was about 3 seconds after the preceding one. Tonight is pitch black and cloudless and I am in a new home community and I was in a large park in the community that no homes have been built. It freaked me out. I stood searching the sky for 7 or 8 minutes and they never reappeared.

Kendall, FL
I was in my back yard when I saw the UFO shaped like a star or a cross. It was very bright and steady with a red light appearing about every 30 seconds for about 10 seconds on and off .

Bradenton, FL
Driving home and saw initially slow flashing light at approximately 30 degrees heading west toward ocean. Once I arrived home I saw the same lights blinking slowly then faster heading west then turning S.E at the same altitude. Lights went approximately 5 miles SW near I-75 in Bradenton and has been hovering with lights flashing. There was no sound and I have enough aircraft knowledge to know this wasn’t an aircraft, or helicopter.

Marco Island - rough approximate, FL
On the late evening of Wednesday, February 26, 2020, while on the Royal Caribbean ship Enchantment of the Seas, at approximately 12:00 AM - 12:30 AM, while sitting on my starboard side balcony, a friend and I were kicking back and just taking in the waves. The Florida shoreline was only 1-2 miles out. I surmise this by the two stationary lights that were slowly passing by as the vessel was proceeding back to its port in Tampa, at 13 knots. (As observed an hour earlier on the cruise ship tv in the main lounge.) While I have tried to find the exact position of the cruise ship using a few online marine vessel tracking sites, I am disinclined to spend the $40-some fee to better pinpoint its location. If you already have subscribed to the services of one of these marine vessel historical tracking sites, it would be easy to plug in the name of my cruise ship, and that time between 23:55 - 0:30 to find a more precise location of where the cruise ship was at. With that being said, as my friend and I were kicking back and just looking out into the distance, I observed a white light traveling northward (right to left from my vantage point). While it was cloudy out, I could make out the object above with what looked like to be an airplane, that was between a half mile to one mile off the ground. In that it was traveling at an airplane low-level, and in that there was nothing else in the sky to view at that moment, I kept my eyes on it. Mind you, its appearance was a blurred white object in the sky, akin to what an airplane would like as it was on runway approach withinin cloud cover. What my friend and I saw next is why I am writing you now. The northward white object disappeared (I chalked it up to a heavier cloud cover), and not more than 1-2 seconds later, a much smaller red light (an object that was the size of a satellite in the night sky) appeared where the white object previously was, and traveled a perfect 90 degrees left to it, which lasted 1-1.5 seconds, whereby the same red light made another SHARP 90 degree turn and traveled to my left, whereby, it made another SHARP 90 degree turn further upwards in the sky (resembling some kind of “inverted shooting star”…except shooting stars do not travel that direction!), and then it was gone. The red light object never wavered from its path, nor its speed, nor its perfect 90 degree turns. There was no mass to this red object I saw, and why I could see it clearly through the clouds - I do not have an answer for. Perhaps it was its brightness. My friend first chalked it up to a drone, but I demurred in that it was simply moving too fast (in both its white form, and in the red form). She then said perhaps it was a laser, but I digress. The area we were traveling past was not populated (as referenced, there were only two lights - period - on the horizon, and the skies were dark). If the white light was some sort of spotlight, I would have seen something emanating from the ground. And, if in the remote event it was someone else onboard the cruise ship with a large spotlight, the clouds would have been illuminated differently. This light was definitely from within the clouds. So ends my sighting. This is the first time I have ever experienced such an unexplained night sky phenomenon. I keep an open mind to life, and have a critical sense to my reasoning. Perhaps this was some government project, but I am left stumped on how the close-white object transformed into a smaller red object, along with the fast speed, and the series of precise 90 degree turns, culminating with a trajectory high into the sky before disappearing. Thank you for your consideration.

Tampa, FL
Peter, Avid listener of Coast to Coast, and I heard your broadcast from last Thursday, regarding the lady from Ypsilanti, MI who saw a daytime object zip across the sky, before "just taking off at a high rate of speed". You made mention there were several reports of this type of occurrence, and you encouraged others who have seen this to send you an email. I first contacted you in late-February/early March 2020 to report a similar phenomenon while on a cruise, off the Florida coast. My listening to Coast to Coast was a bit spotty at that time, so I never heard if my report made it on air. However, what my friend and I saw was distinctively odd, and what happened after its brighter white light went dark/deeper into a cloud bank, and then a bright red dot came out of the white light's last position, and made three precise 90 degree turns before shooting up into the sky and out of sight caused me to again write to you to convey my story.

My friend and I was sitting on our back porch smoking when a white cigar shape object appeared from nowhere and was heading north north/west and went through a cloud and dissapeared. There was no sounds. Whole thing lasted for about 1 minute. We continue look for it for about 5 minutes but seen nothing.

Jacksonville, FL
Red fireball in perfect circles flying about 10ft above tree line. Very long line formation miles in length moving in a perfectly straight line staying the exact distance between each other maybe about 1 mile distance apart. They made no sound and moved like they were floating, but never swayed from an exact straight line and distance from each other. They never swayed from perfect formation. It was very strange and was not natural such as an ember from a flame. They moved almost strategically. They stayed in perfect spheres as if you contained a ball of fire in a glass sphere.

Lady lake, FL
The surrounding were in a suburban area near a house in a small yard. The UFOs appeared as bright white lights, appearing like stars. They would appear individually, there were 10 total objects seen. The craft omitted no sound, and were very fast, much faster than airplanes. The objects would be going one way, and then suddenly change directions. They never traveled along a set path. Occasionally they would suddenly stop and then disappear, appearing to sort of “pop” in different directions before doing so.

St. Petersburg, FL
For months now, on several evenings I’ve noticed from the balcony, in what I guess is the same spot every night to the west of us, a bright light in the sky. Looks just like a star in its shape and color- round and twinkling, or small planet except it isn't there every night- also, like an airplane but it sits there stationary for hours. Then when I go out later, around 10, 11pm or so, it’s gone. I didn’t think anything of it (I’m a rational type writing it off as a drone or helicopter or sedentary plane of some kind, I'm sure it is) until one night I saw it move off suddenly to the north and thought, Oh. That’s weird. Is that a UFO? Tonight it was here from about 7PM throughout the evening until I saw it had moved its location (also stationary) a bit farther north and at roughly the same height by about 9PM and was gone when I checked in again at about 11PM. I do have video of it tonight in two different positions. My boyfriend can corroborate all this. I'm starting a log of tims and positions I see it. I just haven't paid enough attention to check in on it consistently other than to know it appears randomly in the evenings in the same spot and leaves before the time i go to sleep.

Groveland, FL
Approximately 9 pm left my truck to open a gate and saw a glowing light to the East. After watching it for about 5 minutes another light came out of the first one and staying in perfect calm position. About 3 minutes later the second glowing orb, went under the first and headed south. This light orb was approximately 3 miles away and at about 800 ft high.

Big Pine Key, FL
On Sunday Feb 16, 2020, at about 9:06 we were looking South South East from the North end of Big Pine Key. About 30* above the horizon we saw a red streak of light which traveled Eastward lasting for about 4 seconds leaving a trail behind it. I also saw flashing aircraft lights about 50* above horizon in the same part of the sky at that time. I observed the aircraft lights for 3 minutes continuing West. We are able to see Space X launches when conditions are right and the color and movement of the streak of light reminded me of those lunches but in a completely opposite location. I don’t think the streak originated from the aircraft but I’m fairly confident the streak was clearly visible to persons on that aircraft because of their location.

I saw a circular silver sphere, like a bright shiny silver balloon. Floating above the clouds, it went up and down the clouds for about 2 minutes. Then it swirved westardly into the Everglades, quickly and silently.

Orlando, FL
We were leaving the Orlando Internationals Airport shortly after 2 pm. I was the driver and noticed something completely still and hovering over the airport next to a dark gray cloud. I grabbed my passengers attention, which at this point the third passenger noticed it as well. The object was a cigar shape, not in motion at all and using the cloud as it’s cover. When the sun light hit the side of the craft, the object looked as if it was a mirror. Once the sun went back behind clouds this object appeared to have a metallic color as if it was sparkling. Airplanes were crossing the same cloud and the colors were not the same. Nor size and movement! Once we got closer in view, this object lowered itself inside the cloud almost like a covering, almost like a blanket to mask its location. Then it slowly hovered back out from the cloud only to completely disappear. There was sadly no footage taken as I was driving and my passengers were in the shame shock I was. It had no sound, no lights around it. Just a complete cigar shaped object that had the most impressive color I have ever seen. I have seen all types of air crafts, including weather balloons, blimps, helicopters, military crafts and NONE of us have ever seen anything like that! Especially the coloring/size and even how it was using the cloud to cover its whereabouts! Truly incredible. I have seen UFO/UAP objects at night but never during the middle of the day over an airport. It was a first for all of us and truly one I won’t forget!

Apollo Beach, FL
Apollo Beach, FL- We were driving northbound/north-westbound towards the beach and power plant on Apollo Beach road around 5:00 PM. I saw what I first thought to be a plane, however, I quickly realized that it had no exterior parts. I t was high up in the sky, very shiny metallic material, oval/ pill/tic-tack shaped and vertical. It appeared to be hovering. One minute it was there, the next it was gone without any sign of propulsion. It was mostly sunny and the craft was against the blue sky, somewhat near clouds.

Spring Hill, FL
I was having my usual morning coffee in my front window looking off to the east waiting for sunrise. The stars were bright and beautiful the sky crystal clear. I noticed an object that looked like a closer brighter star moving across the east sky, Then another in the same flight path moving to the east. My first thought was high flying jets but after seeing the same thing over and over again to the count of 10 I decided to go out and see where they were coming from. Not out of the west but seemed to be coming straight in from the darkness of space looking like a faint star and the with warp speed coming into vision to the size of a larger star, slowing down and traveling to the east at slower warp speed. This continued for 2-3 min. I ran in woke my spouse up to witness. We stood the for another 5 - 8 min watching one after the other coming in and disappearing to the horizon in the east. So glad I had a witness. Never have seen anything like it.

It was without any sound, oval, with 2 bright lights and one dim light. moving fast and straight. seemed to be not so far away from the ground (mb 100meters?). there was a dim light all around the craft with a some kind tail at the end.

Plantation, FL
First saw (with naked eyes) object in the northern sky. Object then with great speed exited the atmosphere to the western sky. But I also have a dash cam that picked it up at least a minute before I noticed it, so from the video it was first noticed in the eastern sky and in under a minute it was past me really low like within 10k feet then it exits to the western sky.

this was a round abject. It was traveling due north. I was watching a jet fly east when I noticed this ball traveling at a very fast speed. i could guess it was going 3 to 5 times faster than any jet I have watched. After it disappeared I waited for the noise of the object But there was nothing. ball shaped dull silvercolor unbelievably fast no noise

White sphere moving from northwest to south east, no noise or any other lights indicating it was an aircraft. The sight happened from a driveway and was filmed with a cellphone. Later a helicopter flying on the same direction. Two witnesses, me included.
