I'm guessing approximately 100 foot triangle, silent, stationary, and then slowly moving over me in my car just above the tree tops

Sometime shortly after 8pm I was driving home on Copalis Beach Rd. in Copalis Beach, Washington just 10 minutes south of Route 109. I had been following a flashing light in the sky for a few miles and it struck me that it was flashing because white airplane lights do not flash. The flashing was rhythmic and predictable. When I finally caught up to it, it went from stationary thus far to slowly moving over me in my car on the road as I passed under it. It was utterly silent. I had my windows down and it had lights outlining the shape of the triangle underneath that were also white. I took no time to stop and take pictures. I got the heck out of there. It scared me.

NUFORC Note: INVESTIGATION REPORT

Witness: L
Phone interview date/time: 3-21-2025 at 4:15pm PST

L stated that on 2-26-2025 at approximately 8:10pm PST she was traveling in her vehicle on Copalis Beach Road driving towards a white flashing stationary light in the sky. L stated that she caught up to the flashing light and observed a large black triangular craft as it silently flew directly over her vehicle. L stated that there was no doubt that the craft was a triangular shape because it was approximately 100 feet above her and the eight lights attached to the craft helped her see the shape.

L stated that her window was down and her sunroof was open so she could clearly see the craft, but she did not hear any noise coming from the craft, nor was there any air disruption. L then stated that she could only see underneath the craft since it was directly over her, and the only thing she saw was 8 white lights inside a rectangle shape and none of the white lights were flashing anymore.

L stated that the craft was approximately 100 to 150 feet across and it was flying just above the evergreen tree tops. She then stated that her dog was in the car, and it didn't react to the craft. L stated that the incident lasted approximately 3 to 5 minutes, and she drove away quickly because she was very scared. L stated that she had never seen anything like that craft before. She also stated that this incident was approximately 12 minutes from the ocean.

CONCLUSION

L stated that after her incident, she looked up black triangle UFOs on the internet and found some pictures that were very similar to her sighting and provided a drawing of the craft on her initial report. I was unable to find anything on FlightRadar24. I have added L's information to my "black flying triangle" files for further investigation. I will contact the Ocean Shores Police Department and Coast Guard near L to see if there were any other sightings. As for now, it was an anomalous sighting.

By NUFORC / National UFO Reporting Center

The National UFO Reporting Center was founded in 1974 by noted UFO investigator Robert J. Gribble. The Center’s primary function over the past four decades has been to receive, record, and to the greatest degree possible, corroborate and document reports from individuals who have been witness to unusual, possibly UFO-related events.  Throughout its history, the Center has processed over 150,000 reports, and has distributed its information to thousands of individuals.

The principal means used by the Center to receive sighting reports is this website, which has operated continuously since 1994.   Prior to that period, the telephone hotline and the U.S. mail were the primary means of taking reports.   

The Center’s independence from all other UFO related organizations, combined with its long standing policy of guaranteed anonymity to callers, has served to make it perhaps the most popular and widely accepted national UFO reporting facility anywhere.   The website and hotline are well known by law enforcement agencies, FAA ARTCC’s and flight service stations, National Weather Services offices, military facilities, NASA, and many 911 emergency dispatch centers all across the United States and in many parts of Canada. Those entities routinely direct the calls they receive regarding possible UFO sightings to the Center.

One of the Center’s policies, which distinguishes its operations from most other UFO organizations, is that it makes available to the public all of its data in summary form. Detailed information is made available to experienced UFO investigators.   

The National UFO Reporting Center is a non-profit Washington State corporation, and it is applying for federal 501 C (3) non-profit status.
