CLONAS-SUR-VAREZE (38) 02.03.2014

On 2 March 2014 at 19:40, a witness in Clonas-sur-Varèze (38) saw many white or yellow-orange lights. He drove to continue watching and took phone photographs and a video. Only 1 account was collected. Several points seemed stationary; the nearest was blue-orange. A higher one disappeared behind cloud. Infoclimat recorded light northerly wind turning southerly around 19:00 at Lyon and 21:00 at Valence. The source then says the wind at Clonas between them was difficult to establish at 19:20, differing from its initial 19:40 observation time; see Bourg-lès-Valence and Lyon weather. The photographs and videos closely resemble sky-lantern imagery. GEIPAN classifies the case B: probable sky lanterns.
