Two erratic blinking lights spotted in East County that moved, vanished, reappeared, traveled, and finally disappeared into eastern sky.
Me and my children saw 2 erratic blinking lights (resembling stars) in the northern sky (over Santee/Poway area) that stayed stationary for 20+min before slowly descending eastward toward the horizon. Then, one of the lights flickered to nothing while the second light remained lit and descended even faster before disappearing into the northern horizon. All of the sudden, my oldest daughter saw both lights (Still blinking) reappear in western sky within a minute after vanishing. Then the two blinking lights slowly moved to the east above us, pausing for brief moments, only to continue moving eastward. The blinking was very irregular, sometimes they remained lit (like to blend in with the stars), other times like a strobe, and blinking steadily as well. The lights seemed to remain right over us for sometime. My oldest and I played a game with the lights (joking that we should try to communicate with whatever it was) as they moved right above us using our flashlight's strobe setting. It was crazy as they were mimicking our own light pattern. Eventually the lights moved closer together and further east as they finally faded out in the eastern sky? I thought about weather balloons, planes, helicopters, satellites, but none of these would have that kind of activity! I even had my oldest daughter to confirm these lights, just before the vanished, then she found them in the western sky!
