Full Report Text:
saw eight total lights in wide V formation for 5 seconds and then they disappeared.
Two objects were seen over downtown area. Each had four bright white lights on them.
First one condensed into one light and disappeared. Second one was in a wide V formation. It was very low to the ground.
Too low to be an airplane. It almost looked like it was going to graze the tops of the buildings. Then it to condensed into one light and disappeared.
They were against the orange glow of the city lights and were very easy to see. Normaly I would not do something like this but the wife is a skeptic of everything and when she saw this she absolutely freaked. She encouraged me to do this so I did.
((NUFORC Note: Anonymous report; no personal data provided. PD)).
