The pic on the site is a lot brighter than the one you posted.
Not sure why that is??
It sure looks interesting. And captured by a news team none the less.
Will definately keep an eye on this one and see what else comes up about it.

Posted By: Jason Kobely 3 hrs agoIt sure looks like it behaved like a UFO...who can tell for sure these days? But I think the video was taken by a news crew.
SACRAMENTO, CA - News10 often receives calls from those who spotted something unusual in the night skies. It's not nearly as common for those calls to be backed up by our own Air10.
While shooting Friday Night Football highlights over Sacramento, Air10 pilot Ed Georges and FNF correspondent Angel Cardenas spotted a strange set of lights flying over their helicopter.
Not long after their sighting, several callers phoned the News10 newsroom to report seeing the same phenomenon.
So what is it? Take a look at the video to the right and weight in with your own verdict

Sorry Phage, my friends at JPA have the only blimp indiginous to the Sacramento area large enough to mount a light display; and it wasn't flying that night.
Furthermore, if some one were to loft something large enough to be seen in that video, it would have to be flying under a flight plan as it would pose a hazard to other air traffic in the area. Epsecially at night.
Kind of takes the Unidentified out of UFO.
Some one might want to shoot an E-mail to Dale Schornak(Sp?), the evening anchor at News10 (KXTV), to see if he has any additional info.
Dale's a High Power Rocket enthusiast (I think he's earned his multi-stage certificate), and would be in a good position to "debrief" Mr. Cardenas, the reporter who witnessed the object.
Might also be a good idea to request the transcript(s) of any air traffic control (ATC) recordings made ...and radar!
Check with Sacramento International Airport, Sacramento Executive Airport, and Mather Field Commercial (cargo) .
The Sacramento Police Department, Sacramento County Sheriff's Patrol, the California Highway Patrol, and the UC Davis Medical Center all operate helicopters in the area as well. Perhaps one or more of them might have seen something.
Especially if they had been alerted to the presence of an unknown aircraft in the vicinity by a reliable source, in this case, the pilot of a news copter.

When contacted, Federal Aviation Adminstration and Sacramento International Airport spokespeople said they hadn't heard anything about the object and had no idea what the craft could be. A Travis Air Force Base representative said the base had no aircrafts that could be confused with a UFO.So, there you have it.
The commenters who claim to have seen it say it looks like a saucer/siren with lights around it, spiinning like a top. So this just might be your classic flying saucer type UFO.
Here I thought they don't make those no more.

sounds like it was very high for a blimp tho (seeing as footage was shot from helicopter)? And at indeterminate distance, seems like it'd have to be a big one. I'm guessing something else. I'm pretty impressed with this footage actually.

It isn't a blimp.
My thought was that it is being viewed from the left side (the red light) and slightly below. The display grid would be distorted from that viewpoint and may appear as randomly flashing lights.
I'm not sure what it actually is but this could fit the bill. Easy for the helicopter pilot to mistake its size and distance, in fact he says:
I'm not sure the local tower would be notified if the display was being used.

"Not knowing the size of the object, I couldn't determine how far away we were, but I believe it was some distance away as the image was fuzzy even through the PowerZoom camera."
