Red/Orange lights over the ocean

On the night of September 6, 2007 about 10 friends and I were walking along Myrtle Beach at 11:30 p.m. approximately where the pavilion used to be located. As we were walking along a bright orange circular/cigar shaped light appeared over the ocean and then a few seconds later another one appeared. The pair lasted for about 5 seconds. The lights were in a straight line. We could see no planes, noise, or any other motion in the sky.

Then less then 5 minutes later we saw another light. This time roughly 6 appeared and they had moved north slightly. The first one appeared, then less then a second later the next would appear. They would only last for about 5 seconds then fade away. In total it lasted about 10 seconds. Again, they appeared in a straight line. Both times I am unsure if they moved any distance in the sky or if they just hovered, it all just happened to fast.

I have read many other descriptions on this site of very similar sightings to mine happening in Myrtle Beach. I do not know what we saw that night, but it seems others are have seen them too.
