Just after midnight on the morning of june 9th my wife, 10 year old daughter, and i observed multiple lights just south of our house in southern harrison county west virginia. at first there were 3 groups of lights just to the southeast flashing lights very rapidly while hovering at a complete stop. then approximately 1/4-1/2 mile away to the west of those lights there were 3 other groups of lights that seemed to be responding to the other lights. immediately after that, one of the lights to the southeast climbed vertically, roughly 100 feet above the other two. at the same exact time all of the flashing lights all leveled off and began moving westerly. within approximately the next 2-3 minutes, 4-6 more lights appeared where the first 3 lights started flashing before moving to the west. all of the flashing lights moved west and disappeared behind the mountains in the foreground. there were no recorded flights in our area according to flighttracker as i was trying to calm everyone down trying to prove maybe it was some kind of possible air training exercise.
