Here We Go Again: Skies Over Lake Michigan Closed for “National Defense Purposes” (Update: NOTAM Cancelled)

The FAA issued a NOTAM Sunday after 11 a.m. CST closing part of the skies of Lake Michigan due to “national defense purposes.” (Update: Fox News reported at 12:16 p.m. CST the NOTAM has been rescinded. No mention of what if anything was being looked for or if anything was found.)

The closure comes after objects were shot down or chased Friday and Saturday in northern U.S. and Canadian airspace.

Initial Fox News report:

Rep. Matt Rosendale (R-MT) posted that the Montana sighting Saturday night is still being investigated, “I am in constant communication with NORCOM and they have just advised me that they have confidence there IS an object and it WAS NOT an anomaly. I am waiting now to receive visual confirmation. Our nation’s security is my priority.”
