Yes I am well aware of the different wind speeds and directions at various levels, I'll say that meteorology is one of my big areas of interest. I did not know that 2k = 2,000ft in pilot speak, thanks for that. And yes, I know what the wind directions were on the dates in question, both the forecast and actualities.
Like I said on an earlier post, perhaps I'm wrong and it wasn't a lantern you saw, but at the moment there is a lot more evidence for than against.
Also, ask yourself why these objects are mostly spotted on weekends or holidays, after dark but usually before midnight?
