White cumulus shaped object travelling horizontally then sloped downward. No noise or contrail.

In mid-January, my brother and I were sitting on my second-floor apartment patio when we saw a white cumulus shaped object travel across the sky. It started out travelling horizontally then quickly sloped downward. We lost site of it behind a neighboring apartment bldg.

It didn’t appear to be that far away, but who knows. My brother estimates 2-3 football fields away.

There were no lights, nor was there a contrail. Also, it was absolutely quiet. Its speed increased as it travelled.

After we regained composure, we immediately started looking online for an explanation; ie – weather balloon, drone, etc.

I’ve checked a few websites thinking someone else saw it, but found nothing. We’ve been hesitant to report it on local websites for fear of being called crazy. I did post it on one facebook page, but didn’t really get any kind a reaction. Probably should just delete it from there.

We cannot find a rational explanation for it, and we can’t possibly be the only people that saw it. It travelled over I-78, an extremely busy road.
