2012-11-13 - Silverdale, WA - Light

It was 9pm and I was walking outside to close up for the night and take the garbage out. My stepson was with me carrying one of the garbage bags. We walked to the disposal bin and looked across the sky - to the east, we see 3 bright lights in a broken line - they hover in the sky for about 10 minutes. My stepson filmed these first lights with his mobile phone. As they faded, I ran back to the apartment to get my camera. When I came back there two of the lights remained, after about a couple of minutes another light appeared again with them, this time together they all formed a huge triangle in the sky.

Both myself and my stepson filmed this. After about 10 minutes filming the lights faded out and you could make them out faintly as they moved away.

Both me and my stepson then ran back indoors to grab our coats, and warm clothes, and I got my tripod. We went back out. We waited until about 10 pm when one light appeared, it hovered in place for quite a while, then a second light appeared, and after that a third, again forming the same triangle formation as before. It was amazing to see, they stayed like that for about 10 mins, and we both captured it on film again. The lights were more of an orange light. Then as one of the lights faded out, I saw a very bright white light to the far right of the remaining two. Also on film. Then after a short while that started to moved away. The lights then all gradually faded out and moved westwards. We sat outside until 10:30pm but no more appeared so we went back indoors as it was bitterly cold. The distance of them is hard to say, but Dyes Inlet is between where we are and where these lights are appearing, so they could be above the body of water, or above the properties on the other side of the inlet. We see these lights often and still have no idea what they could be. We see lots of planes, but they look very different. There is no sound that we can hear. We are going to go out tonight! to see if anything appears again.
