I already emailed Josh about this.
I saw 6 TVs cruising north over 6th Avenue in downtown Seattle last year on
May 27th. I was sitting in the courtyard at 2 Union Square taking an
afternoon break when I noticed them. They weren't high at all, and I got
good looks at them. I was surprised to see them.
