SERIOUS REQUEST FOR INSIGHT<\/strong><\/p>\n

I know this might sound hard to believe, but I truly need to make sense of what just happened. I’m hoping someone else in Northeast Oklahoma has experienced something similar.<\/p>\n

While driving due west towards my home after being about 30 minutes away, I noticed the sky was crystal clear tonight. The stars were out, and there were no clouds.<\/p>\n

Around 9:15 to 9:35 PM Central Time, I saw a large reddish-orange glow in the sky that resembled a sunset. It was massive, almost like the remnants of a sun setting, and it appeared somewhat hazy. According to Google, visibility in my area is about 10 miles.<\/p>\n

This glow was as big as the sun when viewed down the highway. Given the clear visibility, it’s definitely not a drone, plane, flare, car dealership lights, or fireworks.<\/p>\n

The area I was driving through has some slight elevations on the highway. I first caught sight of this at about 9:00 PM. The actual sunset had occurred at 5:51 PM. It felt like one of those moments when you round a bend and see the sun setting, but this highway runs almost perfectly east and west with no major curves. I had been driving for about 5-10 minutes from my brother-in-law\u2019s place when I noticed it.<\/p>\n

The glow was constant\u2014not changing colors or fading\u2014but it did seem to be moving slightly westward. What was really strange was that I only realized it was moving in tandem with my car when I noticed it shrinking very slowly over the seconds. My wife and I believe it lasted for less than a minute, probably closer to 40-45 seconds.<\/p>\n

I kept asking her what it was, and she was guessing\u2014maybe the moon or something similar\u2014so we didn\u2019t get a chance to take a picture. Honestly, I was so baffled that I couldn’t even think to grab my phone.<\/p>\n

Then, just like that, it vanished as quickly as a sunset. I\u2019ve never seen anything like it in my life. I even tried to sketch it out. The closest comparison I can think of would be a mix between a solar eclipse and a sunset.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m really hoping someone else witnessed this or something like it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
