Details of Incident:

I was in a parking lot full of running semi trailers, so I am unsure as to whether there was noise to go with this 'sighting'....but.

At approx. 7:30 or 8pm, I was out in the parking lot having a smoke. At first I noticed what I perceived to be airplanes off to the southwest. I didn't make much of it until I saw a bright orange flash out of the corner of my eye. I then followed the airplanes (little blinking lights, about 5 sets) as they traveled from the southwest to a direct southern view. At this time I was joined by an older woman, and pointed out the lights to her. We were trying to figure out exactly how many there were, when again, the orange flashes occurred. They looked very much like large meteors at about 35 degrees. There were two bright orange flashes, running in parallel, and they didn't seem to be at the right height for a meteor (they started too low in the sky). The blinking (twinkling?) lights then dispersed, and at least 2 headed south, below the tree line. Within minutes, the lights were gone. At this point, a guy came from behind a semi and said 'were you watching that?! What was that?'

I don't know.

Did anyone else see this?

Probably just marsh gas ;)



A member of the W-Files mailing list gave the following possibility of this sighting:

Sounds like Wis Air National Guard night exercises - dropping flares which appear orange just like you described. Camp Douglas is only 50 miles southwest of Point (which is in Portage County, not Waushara).
