Good evening. I was visiting my sister in North Palm Beach this past weekend. On Saturday night May 28th, I was sitting outside with my husband and brother-in-law. Around 10:00,I looked up and saw a very bright orange glowing light coming towards us from the east. It slowly passed directly above us and continued to the west until it was out of sight. As it passed over us, it looked like possibly a hot air balloon. It had a fire under some kind of glowing structure above. It was silent and was relatively low. Can you tell me if this is was indeed a hot air balloon? Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you!
