Well I don’t even know what to think of that. Quite strange certainly and I’m not even sure how that is explained rationally. Difficult to gauge its size, speed and elevation. Any local FAA reports?

That’s rude. Just say OP’s dad and we know what you mean.

One of the YouTube comments says it is the NC Bandits flight team using pyrotechnics for a flyover for some game in Charlotte.

Weather balloons these days are way cooler than the ones they had when I was a kid.

It is this. It wasn't from last night. It happened January 13. The Charlotte Checkers (AHL team) were playing an outdoor game at the home of the Charlotte Knights (AAA affiliate of the White Sox) and there was a flyover using pyrotechnics. There was an article in the Charlotte Observer about it. It is paywalled - as a Charlotte resident I have a subscription - I read it so you don't have to - I have given you the main point of it.
