Recent UFO sightings over Central California

It’s been a while since I've posted any UFO sightings in the Central California area so I decided to check out the National UFO Reporting Center and see if I could find anything of interest. The site never disappoints and I was able to find several and I wanted to share them in hopes that maybe someone else saw the same thing and can report their sighting as well. If you do see something strange in the sky don’t hesitate to report it to NUFORC.

Note: Every report is copied over as it was written. So for once any spelling or grammar errors aren't my fault.

Motionless bright twinkling red and green lights in the southeast horizon of the sky.


We live just outside of Yosemite National Park in a small rural town in the foothills. It was Thursday, October 2, 2014, between 2:30 am and 3 am. I was looking out of my bathroom window towards the southeast sky as I sometimes do to admire the night sky. First I noticed that the Big Dipper was very bright and then something right below it, near the horizon, I noticed a ball of colored lights twinkling. At first I thought it was an airplane but it didn't move. It just twinkled bright red and green lights. I knew couldn't be a star because all the stars are bright and white.


I went to the livingroom to get a pair of binoculars to go outside to view it from my patio. My husband was still sitting at his desk at his laptop as I told him what I was doing. He went outside with me to see if we could view it better. Sure enough, there it was...still shinning brightly with red and green lights, like a small ball just twinkling on the horizon looking southeast of our house. It never moved from the spot just below the Big Dipper and the rest of the stars. In other words...its position only moved with the earth's rotation.


Since my husband works nights and doesn't get home until approximately 12:40 am, I'm usually up waiting for him to get home. We don't head off to bed until some time after 1:30 am and 2:30 am. So we will probably look again for this bright twinkling ball of light tonight.


By the way, my husband called a friend who is a deputy sheriff on duty until 6 am. He acknowledged seeing the same ball of red and green lights in the sky in the same direction as we did.


I hope I've provided enough information that is needed to investigate this unusual sighting. Thank you.

Eight visible stationary orbs seen in the western sky.


The 8 "objects" were high above the horizon in the western sky and were noticeable once the sun set below the horizon. What started out to be bright white in color eventually turned orange as the sun completed its setting. In effect, they "just appeared" in the sky (west-northwest direction from my position in Los Banos). The "objects" remained in the sky for about ten minutes changing color and dimming in intensity in the process. No time during the observation did the "objects" move in the sky. The "objects" were spread out in a wide "plus-like" formation.


Small amount of clouds but no evening stars visible yet at the time of observation to confuse what was being observed.

Mass Witnessess.


It was 6am, Friday morning. I was walking to school for our Senior Sunrise, (event where the entire Senior class takes a photo during sunrise), but it was still very dark. There was about 40 or more kids that made it early. I hear a student say, "what's that?" I turned around and at first I thought it was just a helicopter searching for someone. Then, the bright light started spinning and growing in size.


At that point it was like a flare. My other friend told me that if it was a flare it would've been brighter. A bright haze surrounded the object and then it disappeared.

Occurred : 8/12/2014 22:15

Location: Clovis, CA
Shape: Triangle
Duration:7 minutes
Triangle craft with three red lights; one on each corner. It also had smaller white lights that flashed along the side.


My husband and I were in our front yard watching the Persieds meteor shower between 10:00 and 10:30 p.m. on Tuesday, August 12, 2014. We had a pair of binoculars with us to see the stars better. I walked inside the house for a moment when I heard my husband yelling my name in an urgent manner so I ran back outside and he was looking up at the sky in Northwest direction. I looked up and saw a red light low in the sky, moving slowly from North to South directly over a house about 4 houses down. As it came into my view, a second light was directly behind it. The distance between the two lights was about four times the distance of the length of a helicopter. As I watched, a third red light came on next to the second red light making a shape of a triangle.


The first thing I noticed was how huge the object was. I had never seen anything even close to this size; it was enormous. I also noticed there was no sound at all. The object was extremely low so it was odd that it was completely silent. As soon as I realized this was no ordinary object, I called for my son who also came running outside and witnessed this as well. I had the binoculars at the time so I watched the object through the binoculars for the remainder of the sighting.


I could see that the three lights were large red spheres on the bottom of the craft and there were much smaller rectangular white lights along the side of the craft that flashed on in a sequence. As I watched through the binoculars all three red lights stayed on at once for a short time and then one of them turned off but I could still see the sphere, it was dark grey or black. All of a sudden all of the spheres turned white at the same time for a couple seconds and then two of the lights turned off while only one white light remained. I could still see the spheres with the binoculars, but when I looked at the object without the binoculars I could only see the white light. At this point the object appeared to be an ordinary aircraft with my naked eyes. We continued to watch the object for a few minutes until it was too far to see anymore.

Close Road encounter on hwy 152


I have never been a big time believer in UFO's.


While driving on 152, I witnessed a craft with three lights in a row fly from right to left quickly and then later on whizzing back from left to right.


At some point the craft got really close to the road, but I could not see the shape of it due to the lights being so bright.


It came down close to the car and then flew off and disappeared.

((NUFORC Note: We have amended the time above to 21:00 hrs., to reflect an evening sighting. We have sent an e-mail to the source of the report, requesting confirmation, but have note heard back from the gentleman, yet. PD))

Triangle Shaped Object Red w/Green Lights - No Sound


My husband and I were driving on Highway 41 towards Fresno, Ca. This is flat farmland country and you can see for miles.


We had a clear view of the horizon at all times, when we approached Highway 198. I saw a large triangle formation above us (approx. 500 feet), with 5 lights, green with red behind the green lights. There was 1 in the middle and 2 down each side.


This object appeared to be at least a football field in width, we have no idea on length. I yelled to my husband "what is that," he was as startled as I was. It appeared to change shape into a straight line, mimicking the radio towers we have seen in various locations.


This object made no noise, we had our windows down. We just couldn't believe what we were seeing.


We immediately pulled off the road within 10 seconds we were out the car, and we saw nothing, heard nothing and there were no radio towers. The sky was just black, like we had seen the prior 50 miles.

There was a silver oval object that moved in a rectangular motion high above the flight pattern of an airliner, then it shot to another location east in the general area of another flight pattern, where another plane was traveling before facing off in a upward motion before we lost site of it.


Myself and two other co workers witnessed it.

Dark silent rough looking craft.


I was laying down on chair cushions enjoying the shooting stars. I noticed a rectangular rough looking object flying approx.150mph. No lights and no sound came from it. It was maybe 3-1000 feet from ground level. It was heading eastwards. I was a little frightened realizing it is intentionally meant to not be seen.


I hesitated for 20 minutes to call 911. But if someone else seen it then I would feel better about such a strange call.


Anyhow 911 responded "what is your emergency"?. I said it isn't an emergency but more a inquiry. Has any one called about a dark large craft flying eastward no sound or lights?


They were understanding and asked shape and size. I guessed on size and said about size of a football field but it was more size of a 18 wheeler. I just got excited, I guess.

When reported the tower control men said he saw it.


On May 30, 2014, I happened to look out my window and saw a low flying object over my nneighborhood, at first I thought it was a plane but I said it's to low so I grabbed my binoculars a went outside and what I saw was no plane it was a flat round object that had multi colored lights all around it.


The object traveled N then turned E went up high then SE when it traveled SE another object followed it as to give chase then stopped. The main object still traveling finally stopped in the SE sky.


After about 30 minutes the main object started to travel back to my area traveling now NW coming low once again I then saw a small plane traveling N, it seem when the object came close to the plane it retracted back to the SE sky.


I then tried to call my local airport but no answer, I then called a local news room while I was speaking to the woman I saw other objects flying high in the eastern sky giving off bursts of light or flashes the woman thought I was nuts and hung up.


I then called Lemoore air base they told me to call my local 911 so I did so they in turn connected me to the fresno airport tower and after telling them what I was viewing and the location of the object in the SE sky changing color he then said hold on as he looked for it he told his co-workers what the report was and he said to them "I'm dead serious"


He the picked up the phone and said that he could see it as well he then told me to call 877 787 7444 Bigelow arrow space ((sic. Aerospace)) I said okay and hung up I then called the number but it was a bunk line.


There is something going on in the eastern sky of fresno and it must be looked into
