AnomalyThe observation of a group of orange balls (about twenty according to the witness), lasting a few minutes, on a Friday evening at 11:53 PM suggests a release of Thai lanterns following a party. The witness observes the balls almost stationary, moving very slightly to his left while fading: the lanterns pushed by the wind move away from the witness, slightly toward the West. Meteociel indicates at Roissy a slight West or Northwest wind of 13 to 19 km/h: Weather. No other testimony will be collected. This case is classified "B" probable observation of Thai lanterns.
