Red pulsating light

I was driving from Lebanon to Springfield on Interstate 44 when I saw a red pulsating light to the south that resembled a warning light on a communications tower. At first I thought it was a tower light or perhaps an airplane, but there were no lights where other tower lights would be. The light did not move in the sky, but stayed in its position as would a star. However, no other stars were visible as the sky was cloud-covered. The ball of pulsating red light (about the size of a BB at arms length)just stayed with me for 40 to 45 minutes until, near Springfield, it seemed to have moved further south and become smaller.
