Look at https://globe.adsbexchange.com/ now. There are plenty of planes and copters. A number of them have no callsign. One plane came from Maine down to NC and did loops near the coast. Another came from Wichita and did the same. One flew from FL to Knoxville and did loops and is now near Wilmington, NC. There are a ton of planes and lots of copters over the panhandle of FL and southern AL.
This much activity seems unusual for night time. I don't remember seeing this much at night in the past several years that I've been an occasional visitor to the flight tracker site.
What's up with all the helicopters in southern Alabama? There's about 20 of them right now, similar to last night. It's about 9:30 AM, and there's less military aircraft activity overall than last night. Perhaps something's up.
When you see those clusters there those are training flights. Typically you will see three clusters from Texas to north Florida of blackhawks and T38 jets for flight schools.
Yet today, there are only two helicopters in the area. Two more just popped up. Cherry Point is the largest Marine air base in the world, yet there are zero military planes in the air in that area or near Camp LeJeune or New River.
Right now, there are two Pegasus planes with no callsigns from Goldsboro doing loops over eastern NC.

I looked about three hours ago and I was thinking this also, lots of activity for night.

They fly around down there and near Ft Rucker in AL.
Eglin is directly south of Alabama on the FL panhandle, and it's the largest AF base in the world, might just be normal operations there idk.
