NUFORC Sighting 87156

Occurred: 2011-07-03 14:00 Local
Reported: 2012-02-12 16:02 Pacific
Duration: 30 seconds
No of observers: 3

Location: Wentzville, MO, USA

Shape: Sphere


Stationary sphere obversed during storm and high winds

A very strong storm was moving through the area, with winds strong enough to shake our deck. As we were watching the storm, we noticed a spherical object just underneath the fast-moving clouds. The object was a brown or plum color, non-reflective, and remained perfectly still despite the very high winds.

Apparent size was about a fingernail at arm’s length and perhaps 30 degrees elevation. Hard to judge the distance, my best guess would be about 200 yards apparently over a road that distance away. That would put the size at less than 10 feet in diameter?? Though just under a very fast moving low cloud, the object was stationary and remained there until the clouds passed over it.




NUFORC Note:

We have amended the date above. We assume that the sighting occurred in 2011. PD
