UFOs Over Lake Michigan

Just over 30 years ago, on an unforgettable Tuesday night in March 1994, the skies above Lake Michigan were alive with sightings of unidentified flying objects-a phenomenon that sparked over 300 reports across Muskegon, Ottawa, Berrien, and Allegan counties. These 1994 Michigan UFO sightings became known as the Lake Michigan 1994 UFO event, and it remains one of the most talked-about incidents in UFO history.

At the National Weather Service office in Muskegon, a weather observer detected strange blips on the radar screen that night. Using the Remote Height Indicator (RHI), the observer tracked these objects' movements, capturing altitude changes that hinted at something truly unusual. While I wasn't the observer that evening, I was on staff and closely worked with my colleague who recounted the events in detail soon after. In the days that followed, we had many careful conversations-sharing these experiences beyond trusted circles came with risks, as discussing unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) could lead to skepticism from others and even risk professional repercussions.

UFOs and strange lights over Lake Michigan weren't uncommon for us at the Muskegon station. Many observers, myself included, had seen these phenomena on the night and midnight shifts. My own introduction to unidentified flying objects took place earlier, during my time in the U.S. Air Force. In 1973, while stationed at Murphy Dome Air Force Site in Alaska-now part of the Alaskan Triangle-I saw UFOs firsthand.

UFOs Over Lake Michigan: A Weather Observer's Tale captures these fascinating experiences and offers readers a unique perspective on the 1994 Lake Michigan UFOs and other encounters. With firsthand accounts and in-depth observations, this book invites both skeptics and believers alike to step inside the mysteries of UFO sightings in Michigan, exploring phenomena that remain as intriguing now as they were then.
