Spotlight like light seen in the sky

I do not want to immediately classify this as a UFO sighting, but I cannot explain it. Friday the 18th I was driving home from skiing and was about a mile from my house when I spotted a white light in the sky. I followed it for a few minutes and then headed home. When I arrived home I noticed the light was exactly like a spotlight, but there was no beam coming from the ground, and this light was going in a perfect circle. After arriving home, I called my dad out to take a look and he was bewildered as well. It was a bright white light in the sky moving in a perfect circular motion moving towards us. I might add we live a few miles away from Willow Grove Air Base, but this was not in that direction. You could also not see the beam, which is very peculair because on such a cloudy night it would have been visible. It was as if this light was coming from above the clouds shining down. It lasted for about 20 minutes that I saw and then disappeared a little after midnight. I kept looking until about 1:00 AM to see if it came back and it never did. I really don't know what to make of it.
