BVH is a CPFer who owns a searchlight company.
I live in the area and did not see the lights. It's all over the news today and there are lots of eyewitnesses to the mysterious (floating) red lights. There is a rumor that youtube has a posting or two but I have not confirmed this. Also if you go to ktar.com there should be some pictures posted and witness accounts, again not confirmed!!!

Anybody who sees these lights should report it at http://www.nuforc.org/
There was actually a program on the Discovery channel early this afternoon that dealt with similar lights in Phoenix and surrounding areas that occurred in 1997 (or was that 1995).

Mystery solved...
PHOENIX -- Strange lights appeared above the Valley sky in formation on Monday night.
Witnesses said the lights formed a vertical line, then a diamond shape, followed by a u-shape.The lights reportedly moved from side to side and upward before disappearing one by one.
ABC15's Jon DuPre talked to one north Phoenix man late Tuesday afternoon who said he watched his neighbor launch four helium balloons with flares attached to them right before the mysterious lights were spotted.
He said he believed this could be the source of Monday night's sightings.
ABC15 knocked on the door and talked to that neighbor, who then said he didn't launch the flares, and instead it was another neighbor several doors down.
RAW: MAN SAYS STRANGE LIGHTS WERE NEIGHBOR'S HELIUM BALLOONS
A Phoenix police helicopter pilot also witnessed the lights and described them as resembling flares.
FAA officials told ABC15 on Tuesday that air traffic controllers in the Sky Harbor tower saw the lights, but noticed nothing on their radar, meaning it was not an aircraft.
An official with the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) said they checked with their command center that monitors the skies to see what is entering the Earth's atmosphere. They have no reports of anything entering the Phoenix area.
A spokesperson from Luke Air Force Base in the West Valley also told ABC15 that the pattern of these lights was not common to an F-16 and that the lights were not from Luke.
The base had no aircraft in the air at the time of the sightings, according to that spokesperson.
Residents like Tony Toporkek caught the lights on camera and shared his video with ABC15.com.
Toporek was talking with his neighbors in north Phoenix when the lights appeared at about 8 p.m.
He grabbed his video camera and started taping.
A Tuesday morning call to Vandenberg Air Force Base on the central coast of California also confirmed they had no activity during the evening and were not tracking anything.
Officials from the Yuma Air Station, the Arizona National Guard and White Sands in New Mexico told ABC15 they had no activity Monday night.
