Location: Seattle, WA
Shape: Disk
Duration:15 seconds
A lit-up disc in sky does some chaotic zig-zagging and flies off in a matter of seconds.

I saw a disc-shaped object in the sky around 2 am while looking out my apartment window in downtown Seattle. I presume it was over Lake Washington, or in that area. It was disc shaped with a squarish dome on top. It did not have any lights on it like a plane, but it was lit up. I immediately showed the person next to me as we watched it fly off in a chaotic zig zag. It moved very fast and had extremely sharp turns to think it was a plane. I remember it to have an orange color, the other remembers it silver. I guess it was a mile away when I first saw it, but was out of sight within 15 seconds. There wasn’t any sound, but we were in my apartment.
