FBI to investigate mysterious booms

"One of the most disconcerting developments over the last few years has been the rise in unexplained booms or explosion noises being heard all across the United States. While many theories about their origins have been put forward, to date no definitive cause has been identified. Of course, it could be that many of these mystery booms are unrelated, but the fact is that nearly all of the stories sound identical. What could be causing these anomalous noises? Unknown seismic activity? Hydraulic fracking? Meteorites? Secret tests of classified aerospace technology? Domestic terrorists testing explosives?

Who knows? Until a cause is found, these mysterious booming noises remain a total mystery. While coverage and interest in these anomalous sounds seem to have so far been confined to local news outlets and mystery news sites like this one, it seems that these unexplained booms have now attracted the attention in the highest law enforcement agency in the United States: the FBI.


On May 22, homes throughout Upper Bucks and Lehigh Counties just north of Philadelphia were rattled by an extremely loud explosion around 4:00 a.m. “It’s a rumble. It actually, like, rumbles the ground like an earthquake would happen but with a loud like boom. I thought that somebody was making a tunnel or space junk fell out of the sky,” said area woman Susan Crompton. There have been multiple reports of similar booms in the area over the last few months, all of which have occurred early in the morning hours. Just like in other recent mystery boom stories, the sounds have been described as “mysterious and near-deafening,” loud enough to shake the ground for miles.

CBS News in Philadelphia has confirmed that the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Pennsylvania State Police are now working together to investigate the cause of these anomalous booms. Can the FBI crack the case? Will they reveal the truth to the public if they do?"

I guess we've been sporadically hearing window-jarring booms thundering from a distance for years. Just reflexively attributed such to licensed dynamite usage by construction development, county road / bridge projects, utility services, and property owners. Becomes curious, of course, when such booms are heard in densely populated districts where explosions are more difficult to sanction or none have been scheduled / authorized.

The noise of gas or propane cannons (for scaring off pests from orchards and the like) doesn't seem to sound much different in character and loudness from a shotgun or firearm. So it's arguably ruled out as another potential, artificial source. (Someone would otherwise have to be hooking them up to a huge amplifying horn or tapering cylinder design enlarging to a giant "mouth" at the other end; and even that might not produce the applicable audible property).

Other than thunder, eruptions, exploding matter entering atmosphere, earthquakes are there more natural kabooms that imitate Thor's hammer?

Not from 2:30 AM to 4 AM in the morning. Not a chance in hell..

I seem to remember someone claiming other jet maneuvers that would "just not be done" at night either: https://www.scivillage.com/thread-4808-p...l#pid17517

Not saying that's definitely what occurred, but accidental sonic booms have been known to happen.

An F-35C being tested by the Navy caused the booms, the military said Thursday evening. Military aircraft routinely conduct supersonic flights but the sonic booms are rarely felt on ground. However, under certain atmospheric conditions there is an increased potential to hear the sound, according to a statement from Naval Air Station Patuxent River.

No..not from 2:30 AM to 4 AM in the morning repeatedly over the same area over several months. No pilots would be doing that shit. Ever.
