MY BROTHER AND i WERE IN THE NORTH END OF THE PRESCOTT VALLEY, AROUND 9PM.

WE WERE LOOKING TO THE SOUTHWEST. WE SAW A SERIES OF UNUSUALLY BRIGHT YELLOW LIGHTS.

THEY APPEARED FROM LEFT TO RIGHT ONE AT A TIME. THE FIRST WOULD ILLUMINATE THEN ANOTHER WOULD COME ON SOME DISTANCE AWAY. ABOUT THE TIME THE NEXT ONE WOULD COME ON THE FIRST ONE WOULD GO OUT. THEY WERE SPACED AN EQUAL DISTANCE APART AND SEEMED TO MOVE ON A HORIZONTAL PLANE. THIS FIRST SIGHTING HAD 6 LIGHTS TOTAL.

THE SECOND SIGHTING HAD 4 LIGHTS IN AN ARC, WITH A CLOCKWISE ROTATION, AT AN ELEVATION GREATER THAN THE FIRST SIGHTING.

THE FINAL SIGHTING HAD 8 LIGHTS ON A LINEAR PLANE AT AN ELEVATION BETWEEN THE FIRST SECOND SIGHTINGS. EACH LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND APPAER TO BE STATIONARY. THEY WERE SPACED AN EQUAL DISTANCE APART AND WERE ON FOR THE SAME AMOUNT OF TIME.
