August and September were big months for UFO sightings in Connecticut, according to the National UFO Reporting Center. During that span, there were 19 UFO sightings reported in both August and September, according to the organization that records UFO sightings nationwide. Prior to Aug. 1, 34 sightings had been reported in all of 2017.

August and September's sightings account for 36 percent of all reported UFO sightings so far this year. While some of the reports during the two-month span were anonymous, none have been discredited by local police. Now don’t get us wrong, we’re not saying there are or aren't UFOs, but according to the NUFORC, the most recent sighting in Connecticut occurred in Norwalk on July 23.
