NUFORC UFO Sighting 135681

Occurred: 2017-08-12 21:00 Local
Reported: 2017-08-13 07:48 Pacific
Duration: 4:00
No of observers: 3

Location: Mayfield Hts, OH, USA

Shape: Changing
Characteristics: Lights on object

Bright slow moving orange light over Mayfield Hts.

Saw this bright orange light traveling from NW to SE, moving very slowly. It wasn't a plane, no flashing lights or beacons.

Thought it might be one of those fire floating lanterns, but it was too big for that. After a minute of viewing it was almost overhead and the brightness of the object would waver, gradually getting smaller and less bright.

Could not make out a defined shape. After a few minutes viewing it passed into a cloud, probably around an altitude of 5000-7000 feet (I know cloud formations, relative heights). A mystery.
