A friend and I witnessed white lights the size of stars poking randomly through a cloudy night sky.

A friend and I were on a porch at a bar (no I only had a couple of beers). It was a cloudy night as the city lights were reflecting off the clouds/no stars could be seen. I looked up and noticed white lights (about the size of stars) poking randomly through the clouds. My friend saw them, too. Neither of us could explain this phenomenon as anything but UFOs. Some years later I saw virtually the same lights on a video broadcast on TV about UFOs.
Date is approximate.  PD
