Lights over Gulf of Mexico

(March 19, 2010) Joe Moore of WJHG.com reported today that strange lights were seen over the Gulf of Mexico. Florida residents and visitors wondered if the lights were military in nature such as airplanes, helicopters, parachute flares or something launched from a navy ship. This prompted calls to NewsChannel Seven whose chief meteorologist Chris Smith contacted the nearby Eglin Air Force Base but received no immediate information regarding the lights.
