Far away, very slow at first, brilliant pink, got harder to see as the sun was setting, spiraled, zigzagged, then disappeared.

As the sun was setting in a clear sky witness 1 saw the seemingly stationary object for about 5 minutes. He told 2 and 3 to come see. 3 determined that the object was moving very slowly due east towards due south but always SSW. 3 got a spotting scope and got a clear sharp image in the scope. 1 saw half of the object. 2 and 3 saw the complete object. It was a brilliant pink (probably reflecting the setting sun) and looked exactly like two interlocking oval chain links. The sky was clear blue, no haze and cloudless. After a few minutes 3 could not see the object any more. 1 and 2 continued to see the object. 1 and 2 reported to 3 that the object spiraled quickly and the atmosphere seemed to ripple like water. 1 and. 2 both used the phrase "like a tornado". 2 said that the object then zigzagged quickly downward using the tornado description again describing a wide zigzag that tapered downward. Then 2 saw more atmospheric distortion described again as ripples in water with a distinct symmetric pattern. 2 said the object was white during the fast movement. Then the object disappeared. At about the midpoint of this event some satellite, possibly the ISS flew over going from approx SW to approx ENE very clear and bright. 1 and 2 drew sketches.
