Vehicle sighting of 5 unknown lights above the highway.

I was driving with my wife North on I 684. On approaching the Westchester County Airport in, Harrison, NY, I noticed flashing lights, ahead of me, above the clouds in the Northwest sky. I assumed they were lights from the airport. Upon passing the airport I continued to see the lights ahead of me. There was no determinable shape, or object but they looked more like wisps of smoke. As the trip continued, we saw 5 lights, ahead if us, in what appeared to be in formation, with one brighter light in the center surrounded by 4 other lights. My best description of this was it looked like a flying aces air show. The 4 lights would emerge with the center light and then break off again in formation. At one point 2 of the lights were on my driver side and 2 I could see in the rear view mirror. I thought we were finally passing them when they traveled again in front of us. After approximately 20 miles we lost sight of them. I am a retired police officer and my wife a r! etired nurse both skeptical of UFO's but this experience changed our view on such phenomena.
