I was outside the emergency room entrance to the hospital in ukiah. i was looking up - the sun had set and there was a bit of a dusky glow behind the hills to the west. i noticed a star that seemed to be shining through fog or clouds - but i couldn't see clouds. it's been unseasonably warm and dry in this area. since i thought it odd, i kept my eyes on the "star" and it sort of drifted in an easterly direction. i took my eyes off of it for a moment and couldn't find it again. i was amazed since it seemed to be "hiding" in mist (but not hiding very well because of the clear weather). my husband saw it as well. the reason i am reporting it is because my sister in law was in sonoma county, about 30 miles from where i was. she just told me that she was outside and looking at the very clear sky last night at a little after 6:00 pm (the same night i was in ukiah) and saw a star or plane that was flying in a mist! she took a photo and will attach it to her report. i've seen the photo and it appears to be the same object.
