NUFORC Sighting 158591

Occurred: 2020-08-15 20:30 Local
Reported: 2020-08-15 21:14 Pacific
Duration: 15 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: San Francisco, CA, USA

Shape: Unknown
Characteristics: Lights on object

A bright purple pulsing pinpoint of light moving erratically over an area north northeast of San Francisco. Object was observed flying erratically, first to the west, then turning on a dime to the east, and repeating this pattern at variable speeds, distances and elevations three or four times. Appeared to hover stationary at one point. After more movement, it suddenly disappeared (didn’t fade out) and reappeared minutes later, before “blinking out” one last time.

A few minutes later, a point of white light further to the east, southeast was seen dropping down slowly and turning partially red as it sank down out of visibility behind a residential building.

Some description of directional movement is best estimate, as it is difficult to determine distance and north-south movement from my vantage point.
