Mysterious boom on the coast?

[Razzy]

Probably a natural phenomenon, the Earth can do some pretty crazy things. There are many rare natural events that we still know very little about.

As long as it was a "boom" and not a "bloop" like the one recorded in 1997 that was picked up by sensors all around the Pacific and had a frequency that indicated it was made by a living organism and not a natural event.

It could be a lot of things, even a military aircraft breaking the sound barrier in just the right conditions for the wave to carry.

so it was an Earth fart? be great if that happened on Earth Day.

I'm completely open to the possibility that the Earth may be a living organism. After all, we don't notice the tiny insects inhabiting our bodies either.

Although I might notice once they started building their version of the Great Wall. That would probably itch.

Probably an exploding meteorite. It happens all the time around the world.

Sounds similar to a sonic boom that once shook my house from an SR 71.

There were a ton of military planes in the air in the last couple of days. Including jets.

It was 500 miles away by the time the boom hit us.

sonic boom would be my guess

Yea, F-18s out of Cherry Point more than likely. Wouldn't really have to be any kind of exercise, just normal flight ops.
