Bright orange lights in the night sky.

We were sitting on the patio at about 9:30pm when my mother in law noticed a orange light brighter than any star in the sky offshore. It went out like someone flipped a switch, reappeared flashing 2 x 3 times. Later we saw a larger orange ball light up following 4 additional smaller balls lit up one by one in a horizontal pattern almost like a string of beeds, they all went out at the same time only to reappear in the same way about 10 seconds later.

1 minute after that we first saw one ball light up again, then another and another until there was a row of 7 or 8 all together also in a horizontal pattern, after about 7 seconds they all disappeared, I tried to film it but my iPhone doesn't do very well filming in the dark so you can barely only see two of the lights in the video I shot. we sat out there and waited to see if they would reappear, after about 30 minutes we gave up.

It was the most insane thing I have ever seen, our neighbors also said they had seen the same thing last year, I described what I saw to them and they replied quote: "Yup, that's exactly what we saw, now that you guys have seen it too we know we're not crazy."
