Occurred : 10/23/2004 21:30 (Entered as : 10/23/2004 21:30) Reported: 10/24/2004 8:03:06 PM 20:03 Posted: 10/27/2004 Location: Apopka, FL Shape: Light Duration: up to 20 minutes Characteristics: There was an aura or haze around the object
~ Last night at around 9:30 big bang at the front door. Sounded like someone ran into the door? Or if someone threw a basket ball at it. Dh & I look at eachother and say "what was that?!" I put the light on and see nothing. Open the door and find nothing. Thought about this later and related this sound to a sonic boom, which we are familiar with here in Florida. ~ Go outside on my back patio around 9:45 and see a bright light in the dark sky. I first just assumed it was like a transformer "blowing" or lightning but it was a constant light--not up in the sky though low to the ground. Not like the flashes transformers or lightning typically causes. It stayed lit up for about 3-5 minutes. The night was also a clear night. ~ Hearing something up on my roof like running back and forth. Initially I thought squirrels but these squirrels would have to be hmmmm...20-30lbs to make that kind of ruckus. No kidding it sounds like a child running up on the roof. ~ So, I go out for the day today. I am pulling out of my neighborhood and see a street sign knocked down about a block away. It isn't bent down more like "sawed" down. ~ Turn out of subdivision and head down fairly busy street. Notice on the left side of the road all traffic signs are bent slightly to the left almost exactly the same. I am talking speed limit signs, H (Hospital) signs, school zone signs, etc. They are all bent like this for approx. 1 mile.?? ~ I have a bruise on my arm that I don't know where it came from and is in a conspicious area that I racked my brain trying to understand what happened. Met up with my brother and he has the same bruise (size & shape of the letter "U") that he doesn't know where he got it either. For the record I didn't mention my bruise to him or any of my other weird coincidences that have been going on. However, I did mention it to him later.
