No of observers: 10

Location: Sykesville, MD, USA

Shape: Circle
Characteristics: Lights on object

Three glowing red lights moving slowly over Sykesville, MD.

I woke up because of the fireworks around the neighborhood.

I went outside to smoke, and saw a round bright red glowing light moving at a steady pace across the sky. I thought that it was a plane.

About 30 seconds after seeing the first light I saw two others. I ran inside to wake up my husband, and he came out and saw them as well.

Numerous neighbors were outside watching the fireworks and also saw the lights. I heard someone say that it may be lanterns. That could be, but if so they were unlike anything I have ever seen in person.

If anyone else saw them and knows what the heck they were, please post on this site. It is making me crazy not knowing what they were.
