Initial data
An eyewitness from the city of Raalte (Overijssel region) writes:
We saw 3 orange points of light. We don't know if it has moved. So it was 10 minutes. It became less and less bright, and then it was gone.
Original news
RAALTE, OV — We zagen 3 oranje lichtpunten. We weten niet als het bewoog. Het was er 10 minuten. Het werd steeds minder fel en daarna was het verdwenen.
Hypotheses
Light sources on clouds
Lasers, searchlights, car headlights and other light sources of sufficient power can form a column of light in a dusty or foggy atmosphere, various patterns on low clouds, fog or haze. Also, the rays can highlight parts of the cloud, objects or birds, giving them bizarre shapes.
Searchlights can shine with one beam, several. They can be stationary, move, and also form spinning carousels on the clouds, which can change shape and color.
It often seems that the light source is located at the point where the beam hits the cloud, and not vice versa.
Investigation
this appearance is typical for the reflection of some bright light source (city area, greenhouses, park, etc.) on low clouds.
