A triangular object with lights in each corner and a central light was seen. It circled slowly at a low altitude (500 feet) below the cloud cover.

At some point, it stopped and hovered for a minute. As the object veered away from us, we saw a triangle in pale white lines illuminating the corner lights. 

Seen by me and my son (a college manager and a high school student) from our car.
