Case description

A witness reported that on 19 November 2011 at 22:08, several yellow-orange lights passed silently above his home along a straight southeast-to-northwest path. They disappeared while gaining height at very high apparent speed. GEIPAN considers sky lanterns the immediate explanation. Weather records show matching southeast-to-northwest wind, and Saturday-night timing is typical for releases. No search was made for a possible wedding, celebration or other release site.
