April 2

Why do UFOs like April 2?

No, there isn't a punch-line. There always seems to be activity on April 2. Like the video below of an unidentified aerial glow over New Orleans in 2012.

Ufo, ball lightning, or something else entirely? The original poster of this video has stated that "This video has been confirmed to be real. But it's no UFO, it's a rare weather phenomenon." Unfortunately, that is all they tell us. How was the reality of the video confirmed? What identifies this as ball lightning?

In 2013 it was "Massive UFO Lights Up East Coast! April 2"

Then there's this photo from The British Earth and Aerial Mysteries Society for the same date:

And of course, the Balwyn, Australia UFO of April 2, 1966 via UFO Evidence:

The well tended site (it looks like a lot of work) UFO Sightings Daily mentions at least five others, while Ufoinfo has a list of a dozen for the date. The National UFO Reporting Center has a massive database which lists sightings by date, with consistent reports for April 2. Why April 2? I have no idea, unless it's because it's the day after April Fool's Day. Just kidding.

Also on this date:

The birth of Chico Xavier, in 1910, popular medium of Brazil's spiritism movement, and author of Nosso Lar.
