My fiance and I were fishing on the Myrtle Beach State Park Pier. It was partly cloudy with large cumulus clouds in the sky. There was a large military plane doing practice runs in and out of the airport over the ocean, but was unrelated from this sighting.

As we were leaving (heading toward the shore line) there were 3 orange colored lights along the perimeter of a cloud. 2 were on the top. 1 was on the bottom. They were all equal in size, and each was in the shape of a line. They began to shrink and grown in an alternating pattern. They then shrunk individually and disappeared.

The same thing was observed on 6/1 when we were fishing around 10 PM. This time it was one light, same shape, same size, but over the ocean. It contracted and disappeared.
