Orange lights seen over the ocean from Charlseton HarborOn the night of October 23, 2012, my friends and I were in the Charleston Harbor on a boat. We saw a bright orange light over the ocean that began to separate into other orange lights in a horizontal fashion. As soon as all of the lights would go out, another bright orange light would appear miles away, at different altitudes, and they would also begin to divide into more orange lights. This lasted for about 5 minutes and was seen happening over Isle of Palms all the way to Folly Beach and everywhere in between.
