Chino, CA

Report 4 of 11 "Orange and red sphere over Northern Virginia [...]"

Report 7 of 11 "This was a red light which was moving quite fast over Aberdeen, Scotland. [...]"

Report 8 of 11 "Orange Sphere over Northwest Florida [...]"

It is not an isolated problem for Chino, CA. Most(?) locations that have more than one report will include a report for an event that is nowhere near the selected location.

The text box seemingly has nothing to do with anything you've clicked on. I was zoomed in to Toronto, looking at the few points there, and the text in the too-small scrolling box was about Norfolk Virginia. That's pretty strange.
That could be. The first 2 I clicked on referenced landmarks that were on other ends of the globe.
