Observed 2-3 bright orange orbs just east of Downtown Pittsburgh

Driving home from a family gathering, I spotted two orange orbs in sky above the Regent Square neighborhood of Pittsburgh—east of Downtown.

I told my husband to pull the car over, and we both watched the two orbs hover above; each "meandering," moving slightly, but not in any particular direction. They were both the same "fire" orange color and seemed to be very high above.

We watched both of these orbs for about two minutes. Then, one disappeared. We watched the second one for about 45 seconds, and then it too seemed to disappear before our eyes.

We pulled back on to the road to continue our drive home, and within the next minute I spotted what was possibly a third orb, or perhaps one of the two that saw previously, appear in a different part of the sky.

Just as we were about to pull over to watch the orange orb, it was gone too.
