Florida UFO Sightings in 2016

Full Report Text:

3 orange red spheres over North Port, Florida. December 31, 2016, starting at 11:33 pm until 11:39 pm. Observed first, a single brilliant, orange red sphere, then approximately 2 minutes later, 2 more of the same spheres flying side by side, following the same path as the first sphere.

They were initially spotted from the south east near Punta Gorda, Florida, heading northwest over North Port Florida. The speed was very fast and silent. No visible vapor trails.

Sky was clear with little street light interference. The first sphere flew a direct, horizontal path then suddenly disappeared near the north border of North Port. There were no clouds to camouflage the light.

Sphere was large enough and bright enough to be seen at a far greater distance than the point at which it disappeared. The 2 spheres that followed, initially flew the same fast and straight horizontal paths, then suddenly started a rapid, narrow, zigzag, pattern, which lasted a few seconds. They then resumed their direct high speed horizontal path and disappeared in the same spot the first sphere did.

My tablet would not take helpful photos. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)).

Bright objects traveling at high rate of speed from south to north Noticed bright orange object traveling at high rate of speed traveling from the south to north. Over the two hours we noticed one at a time fly over us with no sound, no contrail. Object was very bright orange, but once it went by, the back side had no color & would fade away.

I live just outside of town. I was walking my dog when he stopped. I turned to see why, and saw he was staring into the sky.

I looked up and there were clusters of lights forming a large circle in the sky. I want to say there were three lights to each cluster, but not sure, as it also seems there could have been more. The object was very low to the ground, I thought, and almost directly above my dog and me.

It was very cloudy around the lights and the area in the middle of the lights, but the lights were clearly defined. I don't remember the night being exceptionally cloudy, though, it could have been. There was no detectable sound.

It seems like the lights were turning, but it's kind of surreal, so not sure now. The lights were just white, no color. It just sat in the one place.

I texted my kids about what I saw and went back into the house, and it was still there when I went in.

Red Star Formation I just finished eating dinner with my family. Me and my step brother walked outside to launch bottle rockets for New Years. I looked up and saw a formation of Red star like objects moving in a southwest direction swerving left to right the distance was at a very high altitude.

We were launching fireworks at the time, so I thought it could of been falling ambers from the fireworks, but after the fireworks stopped, the objects kept moving in a southwest direction, then faded away. I was completely sober and was not drinking.

Fireball in sky. As my husband was driving down Mariner Blvd. I in the passenger seat noticed a cylinder very bright fireball object in the sky.

It looked as if it was falling but never fell just kind of stood in place maybe. I came home to check news reports, because I was for sure it was a plane. Nothing is being reported as of yet.

Found this sight in the process of my search on what was going on. My daughter tried to get pics but it was too far away for a phone camera. It was like a falling explosion in the sky but never fell.

((NUFORC Note: We have changed the time above, to reflect a nighttime sighting. Possible sighting of Venus. PD)).

We were walking on the beach at night and saw a fast moving, oval/orb shaped orange light moving across the sky. It looked like it had fire inside of it from the front. There were no lights on it besides the fire from the front.

It was flying lower than an airplane with no noise and was too fast to be a Chinese lantern. Then after a few seconds, an identical orange orb flew across the sky in the same path.

Day-light glinting UFO spotted. On December 29, 2016, I took my daughter and son, as well as my son’s friend, to the zoo. It was a sunny day and the sky was blue with some scattered cumulus clouds.

At approximately 11:00 am we were exiting an exhibit, when I noticed something glint in the eastern sky. I stopped to look and it glinted again. I could not discern its altitude however whatever was flashing (reflecting?) light was stationary.

The glinting occurred every 5 seconds or so. I pointed out the object to my son and his friend. They both acknowledged seeing it glint.

As I was pointing out the object to them, another zoo patron walked by me and said to me, “You see it too…huh?” I smiled and nodded at him. He kept on walking. My son, his friend and I observed this stationary glinting object for 5 minutes or so, before it just disappeared.

I did not see again for the remainder of the time we were at the zoo. The object was too far away to discern any detail. I have no idea what I saw.

I did try to take pictures of the object with my phone, but nothing came out on the pictures I took. To my chagrin, I did not think of taking video of the object.

While driving on 595 from West to East, just passing the turnpike ramp; I saw what I thought was a bright star. Only it didn't "tw While driving on 595 from West to East, just passing the turnpike ramp; I saw what I thought was a bright star. Only it didn't "twinkle" but it did have that star effect that emitted rays in a "T".

I refocused by sight to make sure if what I was seeing, but to me at the time & I suppose my mind was trying to reason with what I was seeing, I saw the top portion of the object. Seemed like a plane, since it had those red & green lights on the ends, but it then I start noticing that it also had light on top, that changed colors in a pulse of blue, green, red, purple. At this same time, the bright white light started to dim.

I had to get my eyes back on the highway for a bit then I searched for it again but I couldn't find it again. I scanned the area in the sky where I spotted it. I found it once more, only the light wasn't as bright & it didn't have that "T" of light rays.

& since the light wasn't as bright, I could start making out the color of the object & more or less the shape. It was a dark white/light gray in what seemed like a mini blimp or maybe it could have been blimp sized but really far. The final feature before it left was the "opening", as if the object open & closed like Pac-Man & the light was inside Pac-Man's mouth.

It did this only twice & it was gone, it was stationary the entire time. I couldn't find it again but I did search for it for about 30 mins.

Yellow light fly in piroutte style movement While stepping out to close lani windows I noticed to yellowish lights south of my location. They seemed to be stationary for 15 second and then began to pirouette and point to the west and started moving at nominal speed when one light moved to the south the other continued west. The light headed south just disappeared in an instant while the other continued westerly and disappeared.

There were no flashing lights at all so don't believe it was airplanes. I heard no sound from them whatsoever.

5 Orangish-red spheres traveling east to west in a row over Port Orange, Florida (Daytona Beach area) Dec 24, 2016 I saw five orangish-red twinkling round objects in the evening sky around 20:30 - 21:00 traveling in a straight line from horizon to horizon, equal distance apart from east to west on Christmas Eve 2016. Each object appeared to be at least 1000 feet in altitude and were traveling at a constant speed, except for the middle one which seemed to slow slightly before disappearing. Each light twinkled and had the same illuminosity until the light faded somewhere over or near the Spruce Creek Fly-In Airport.

The light source acted like a looping (repeating) laser projection, although the cloud deck was broken or scarce that evening. The only other conclusion I could reach was that the objects were highly illegal drones which had situational awareness of one another. They traveled in a straight line along a consistant heading from somewhere near Ponce Inlet, Florida (New Smyrna Beach Airport) and the Fly-In.

Reappearance of Triangle - 3's of Otherworldly Presence Triangle in shape, in trio, exact equal space if drawn with finger to sky, will draw a "air triangle" Seemed to appear out of no where. Hoovered in one position for approximately 7 seconds facing to the area of MacDill AFB in Tampa, Florida; zipped in straight lines for few seconds, to the left, forward, to the right, and backwards; for approximately 3 seconds, one was actually overhead, before moving to their original location where first spotted. Then suddenly zipped straight up into the sky, unable to see further due to clouds moved in.

They seem to appear in the primary lighting area, the "point end" of triangle, was "brief" - Flash of light. Consider a strobe light flash; but not the same as a lightning flash (there's no storms in area) as if "images were being taken below them". One flash for each "stop" movement before taking off.

All 3 looked alike, from appearance: all were triangular in shape, had lights underneath - appears to be white, non-blinking, stationary lights. 2 Witnesses were able to count the lights for a total of 9 primary lights and a possibility of 21 secondary lights? (Movement was too quick; a photo shoot by the reporter came out "blurred light movement", unable to process or post image). It made some type of a noise as a "hum" sound, that which one would consider as "electrical hum" pitch; only when these 3 moved to another position.

Reporter of this post has seen this before - 1966, 1986, 1996, and now 2016 - in time frame of Fall/Winter (except 1996, was very early Spring and a different object, which appeared to be two wheels, one big wheel (outside) with one wheel (inside).) All events occurred within or nearby MacDill AFB in the Tampa Bay Area; Reporter of this post, plus the 5 Witnesses (current event) seeing this is facing E to ESE direction. (Compared with previous visitations) Triangle shaped flying object is triangular with a sloop "upper" which gives the Reporter the idea of "Dynamics and Aerodynamic" design.

It appeared that USAF Pilots took off in the area shortly after their manifestation. Too dark outside to determine if the USAF Pilots were responding to the event. The animals, such as dogs, cats - dogs whimpered and cats scampered into "hiding".

The digital system when into error, electronics malfunctioned; DVR and Modem rebooted. Phones were disabled; more so when overhead, attempt to take photo of one of the three, failed. One of the object which was overhead, appeared to be at least a size of a football field (Best guess) - far SMALLER than the one seen earlier; especially 1966 - when Reporter had actually been in contact with aliens, which currently are known as Greys.

US Government has been with this reporter since 1st contact in 1966. Other witnesses saw it, much of them scoffed; a couple considered someone "had a drone" . but drones do not move this supersonic speed, zip without turning sideways and forward/backwards and zips straight up.

A few reported having headache after this event occurred, went home to take a Tylenol.

Ultra-Bright White Blimp like Object REPORT UFO Sighting Davie, FL 12/15/2016 20:00 I first spotted the light in the northern sky. Location of the full moon was in the northern sky as well. The moon was at about 45DEG.

It was difficult to see at first because it was directly behind, but a little above a streetlight. I would say the object was approximately 15DEG above the horizon. The object was moving westward slowly, effortlessly, and quietly.

It was blimp like in movement and shape. I lost vision of it behind a large tree. The object then looped to the south and was directly in front of me at 26 5’ 40.

66N 80 15’32.45W At this point the object was almost stationary. It was ultra-bright white.

So bright my eyes had a hard time focusing. However, I did notice that there was a square to rectangular shaped area on the bottom that was black. Hand drawn picture will be sent to email referenced on website.

In addition, the object was equal to the horizon and less than 1/4 (.25) miles from my observation location east of coordinates. Object began an accelerate movement to the SSW where it crossed a major commercial airline flight path.

I believe an inbound commercial airliner made an abrupt turn and deceleration. I searched the internet for pictures of blimp at night, and the object had no resemblance of the pictures I viewed. I thought if it was a blimp heading south it would be going to Perry Airport.

I got in my vehicle and drove in that direction. I spotted the object again, in the distance. I drove all the way to Perry Airport, but did not see the object in the area.

Was driving South in Davie on either pine island or nob Hill Rd was coming up on Griffin Rd and saw blimp like shape. It was low and seem even low for a blimp. Didn't think much because it is on plane descent into airport.

But my 4 kids started to notice so I kept trying to determine what it was. Googled image of blimps at night and nothing. There was no noises and it was no movement one place.

The area has countless blimps/planes etc. This was just different. I pulled in to Publix parking, only to find it wasn't there.

In a matter of turning right into parking lot than right into parking space and it was gone.

Rapidly moving green light flying south to north at very rapid pace. Noticed a small green orb traveling very rapidly rapidly from south to north. Based on its size and speed, it was not a typical aircraft.

bright beaming ball went to let the dogs out ((deleted)), and looked up as usual to appreciate the stars, and one was for sure not a star. far away from the moon, ruling out the north star and just beaming! sort of yellow at least in comparison to an actual star and much bigger. would just beam bright then get real tiny and dim, then back to big and bright.

it is circular as im writing this as I watch it. only one.saw one like.

this in NY and eventually just slowly vanished across the sky behind a tree line. ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)).
