Changing lights over Santa Cruz CA

I stood outside my apt smoking a ciggarette when I noticed an odd set of lights south east of my position. They rotated from red to white. At first I thought it may be a radio tower of some sort then realized there is no tower on the nearest hill and even if there was the lights would be closer and the tower over 1000 ft high. If it was one craft it was definetly cylyndrical in shape, but I believe it may have been 2. They hovered one over another for at least an hour and I can see from my window that they are still in position as Im typing this. Im former military and no loon I know how to identify aircraft and these are no aircraft Ive ever seen or heard of.

NUFORC Note:

Sighting of Sirius, we suspect. PD
