Early Morning Lights w/Methodical Flying Speed
Hope I don’t sound crazy, but I’ve been looking online to see if anyone else saw this for 2 days now.
I was walking my dog and lights to my right caught my attention. I cannot give them a true color as we know it…they were not white and not yellow. They had a very “warm” hue, yet bright and steady. There were no blinking lights like in aircraft I’ve seen flying. The shape was between a triangle & horseshoe. Not as sharp as a triangle yet more pointed than a horseshoe. The area is very close to a military base so I am VERY used to aircraft, but what was most odd about this is that it was not the sound that caught my attention - but how inordinately low & how methodically it was flying. There was an odd, methodical steadiness of the lights and movement. The other odd thing was once I noticed it, I could then hear a soft (almost muffled) sound. The closest description I can give is that it sounded more like a soft muffled whooshing than the engines of a plane, military plane or helicopter. In hind-sight when I think of the soft whooshing sound & lights I would almost describe the combination of the two as an “energy“ of some kind.
Needless to say I had a very conscious thought that if I didn’t know better I’d say that is a UFO…..but then low & behold (almost as if it heard me) it literally hovered for just a second (no more than 2) right above this exceptionally large pine tree that stands out above the tree line and hung there in a complete stopped position. As I started to move further out onto my drive to make sure I was REALLY seeing this “plane” just hovering, it lowered straight down. No angle to the lowering, just a straight line down at the same methodic speed it had been flying. Having asked a question or two (while trying not to make anyone think I’m crazy) I have determined there is actually about a 30 acre field within ¼ mile of where it appeared lower straight down. I stood there for about 4 minutes waiting to see if it would come back up. I went back into the house I immediately told my boyfriend what I just experienced. Another VERY important note is about 3-4 minutes after I came back into the house I heard an exceptionally LOUD boisterous military aircraft engine fly directly over my home. I again ran outside to see what was going on & though you could clearly hear the military plane (& the house was vibrating from it) I could not readily see the aircraft. Now this we’re used to hearing regularly - NEVER so close above the house but it undoubtedly flew directly overhead. Again in hind-sight I can’t help but think it was following or looking for it. One other important note I‘d like to make, it was not flying from or towards the military base…if I had to give it a direction it appeared to be flying towards the Hudson River.
