Round UFO covered in yellow flashing lights spotted in York, PA

I was asleep in the den with the cat on my lap and I was awakened by a slight ping on the windows (I live on the 4th floor of an apartment complex). It sounded like a ping when take your fingernail to a crystal glass, or the sound of sleet when it is just starting. It woke the cat and the cat got up and stared at the window for about a minute, then jumped down and left the room (the pinging sound continued during this time). After the cat left the room, I turned off the light and went to the window, opening the blinds. I was just staring at the sky, when I saw this round object about the size of a small orange from my point of view. It had yellow lights which covered the entire object, and the lights were flashing like Christmas tree lights. I observed it for about six seconds and it was moving slowly. It then disappeared and about five seconds later, it appeared up further in the sky. After five seconds, it disappeared and I did not see it again. I called the local TV station and the meterologist said there were no meterological events to report that night that would be anything like this object I spotted.
