Duration: 15 seconds
No of observers: 1
Location: Cotulla, TX, USA
Shape: Rectangle
Characteristics: Electrical or magnetic effects
small, bright, yellow/orange lights in a pattern and on same plane
Driving South on IH 35, North of Cotulla about Gardendale exit, low in the Western sky, I saw a perfectly shaped and on same plane rectangle arrangement of small bright yellow/orange point of light.
As I drove South, the rectangle did not move, however the short ends condensed into each other, forming 2 lights. Then the two lights faded, with the center being a very dark red and disappeared.
Not sure, but coincidentally my iPhone went haywire. I was on a call, got dropped, I could not terminate the call and I could not turn off the phone for over 5 minutes.
I have never seen this sort of thing before.
I told my wife last night, here in Laredo, Tx as we were driving home from dinner, at 9:15pm, and not even 5 minutes after I described what I had seen,
we saw 3 lights to the North, low in the sky, just like I had seen last week in Cotulla, 70 miles North of Laredo. I would not describe as a triangle arrangement, however, all the lights were on the same plane, and disappeared in similar fashion after about 10 seconds.
My wife confirmed she too had seen them - small, bright, yellow/orange lights and dark red center when they disappeared. -
No noticeable movement
