Characteristics: Aura or haze around object

I looked up to the South sky and saw a round white light traveling east in an S-like pattern.

As I walked outside to go to work I looked up to the South sky and saw a round white light traveling east. The light was bright and round but wider in the center traveling in an S like pattern and then suddenly disappeared.

It appeared faster than a typical airplane and the sudden change of direction is inconsistent with a small meteor.

The day was a cold, clear with no rain, early morning still semi dark with a clear view of the sky.

Object would have been over the water on the south shore of Long Island.
