Formation of 8 lights over ocean in Surfside Beach S.C.

While gazing at the night sky over the beach, I witnessed a strange yellowish orange light appear at about 45 Deg. in the sky over the ocean. I said to my friends (7 of them plus me)what is that? when another light appeard along side the first light, then another and another. There were 4 in total at that time, then they blinked off and back on again and four more lights appeared along side the first four to make a total of 8 lights in a "V" formation. They stayed lit for about 30 seconds and just vanished. These lights were not moving nor was there any sound. Everyone in this group had never seen anything like this in their life.

I am 53 and do not drink.

These lights reminded me of the Arizona lights.
