• When: On or about August 28th, 2013
• Where: Georgetown (Austin area)
• What: Flying saucer with lights ???

An everyday Youtuber, Linda Morales, uploaded an excruciatingly brief video featuring - I think(?) - an oblong craft with lights all around.  Sort of like, a, flying saucer. Or... it could be a bus passing by, or a lit up office building, or... something far stranger. As always, you be the judge!

Read a few quotes from the video (for folks who are at work and can't listen) and watch it here:

The video earned a cute comment from the witness' niece:

Along with UFOs, the source or cause of loud rumbling booming noises have boggled peoples' minds for years. And also like UFOs, they seem to happen in "spurts" and travel in a direction throughout the country. Well, Texas got a wave of these odd sky sounds on the nights of March 8th, 9th, 10th, and 12th. Though South Carolina got it started. Here's the timeline:

1. March 6 & 7: Terrifying "loud rumbling noises" in South Carolina
2. March 8 south of Georgetown (Austin area): "Did anyone else hear that? I'm asking because I heard the OKC bombing as a kid and it sounded similar."
3. March 9 North Houston: "Right around 10:40 PM, rattled my windows. WTF?"
4. March 10 near Conroe, north of Houston: "we have been having loud Booms and even felt the repercussion of the Booms" ... "Periodically we have been having a stinky smell all over the County"
5. March 10 Waxahachie, south of Dallas: "Just had another loud boom" .. "It was exactly like the one we heard Friday night" ... "It is sure a very good way to get to know your neighbors and bring them all together though."b,
   
6. March 12 Fort Worth: "Just heard four big booms in succession over FtWorth... Anyone else hearing this?"
7. March 14 Mcallen (South Texas): Inquiries about a loud boom pop up on the web - in a web search and on a Facebook page
   

Here's video of a South Carolina news story on the booms residents are hearing in the state:

Here's a compilation of strange sky sounds heard around the world from 2012:

• When: March 2, 2013
• Where: Georgetown, TX (outside Austin)
• What: Red orbs, changing patterns in the sky

I was alerted to a pretty great UFO sighting out of Georgetown on Twitter - of red objects, moving around in patterns, and gradually disappearing. And it reminds me of the recent mass sighting in Irving  - where a video show multiple red lights changing formations and then slowly disappearing, one by one.

Here's the video of the Irving sighting:

Over the past few days, we've seen a significant uptick in Texas UFO sightings. They varied from strange orange lights in varying formations to green flashes. Many sightings did have a "meteor" feel to them. Well, it now appears that over the nights of May 22nd and 23rd, according to 
Elpasoallsky.blogspot.com, there may very well have been a meteor fireball over Central and North Texas. Does this explain some of the recent sightings, or was there something else zooming through our skies that has been mistaken for a meteor? Certainly stationary lights in the air don't fit that bill.

A recap: (this one's being chalked up to sky lanterns)

Update: Sky watchers ElPasoAllSky.com received sightings of a meteor/fireball for thsi time period (either way, there was definitely a UFO flying over Central and North Texas).

Someone has reported an Austin UFO sighting to the message board GodLikeProductions.com. The May 22nd/23rd sighting was of a meteor-like object, green in color and with an explosive quality. From the forum:

Others chimed in and discussed similar sightings from the past. A resident of Wimberly, TX seems to have seen the UFO, too:

One person from nearby Round Rock heard a sonic boom during the same time period:

What's interesting is another meteor-like object - a blue, flashing light with a red tail - was seen in nearby Georgetown the same night.
