Not in the midwest, I'm over in Coventry UK, but last Thursday night around 11pm I saw something weird over the ring road that I genuinely cannot explain. Three lights in a triangle formation, completely stationary, then gone. No sound. And here's the thing - I went inside thinking it had been maybe 5 minutes and my partner said I'd been stood at the window for nearly half an hour.
Could be nothing. Could be loads of things. But the timing matching up with what you're describing is making me a bit twitchy if I'm honest.
Anyone else notice if the lights were a warm white or more of a bluish colour? Thats the detail that always seems to differentiate reports in the Mandela Effect adjacent cases I've been digging into lately.
