Loud boom in NE Wake Co. NC – March 12 2013
I’m washing dishes with my wife tonight, when we both heard a loud boom outside. I look at the clock and it reads 10:05. “Is that a tornado?” she asks. I open the window and the boom is starting to subside. It sounds like it’s coming from Louisburg or Youngsville direction. It sounded like reasonably-far thunder. There’s not rain in the forecast. Anyone else hear that? – God like production

I am not buying all of these officials causes! What about you?
I buy Some of it, but not most of it. What military , police, or any other institution/officials would just explode stuff, without making a 2 second phone call Beforehand to local news stations so the good people of those areas are not needlessly frightened?
Such a protocol should be followed nationwide, by publishing ahead of time,
exactly the scheduled times detonations/training exercises, sonic booms, etc, that will take place, so the public can match up the sounds with the announced times given by any such agencies who claim responsibility for these sounds. I would think such info would Not need to be “top secret”, since everyone in that area will hear it anyway. Atleast that way,the cause of some of the booms could be clearly identified as man made, thus eliminating public alarm, meanwhile all the rest of the booms/strange sounds, can lie quietly in the “it’s a mystery ” abyss.
Yes!!!
