Loud, House-Shaking Booms – Even Horn/Trumpet Sounds –
Persist in U. S. and Canada.
“The loud boom just shook this whole neighborhood.
Stuff rattled on the shelves. Everyone was coming out wondering
what's going on. I've even had people say, ‘Are we being invaded?’
Where is it coming from? Who is doing it? Why? We don't know
how long this is going to continue.”
- Leon Cunningham, 25-year resident in Livingston Cty, KY

Frostquakes?
-
The booms have been going on nationwide in various places for years. I have experienced at least twice.

Scientist says research of mysterious booms at a standstill | WWAY NewsChannel 3 |http://www.wwaytv3.com/scientist_says_research_mysterious_booms_standstill/11/2010 (http://www.wwaytv3.com/scientist_says_research_mysterious_booms_standstill/11/2010)
I think these booms are different in nature than the ones above?
These booms are said to be from 'frostquakes' or I would guess fracking?

First I have heard of the trumpets...
-
I've experienced them firsthand also.
The horn sound was a bit unsettling. The pressure cooker mechanical sound was even more disconcerting.
But I believe that our species has DNA instructions to ignore it. How else can you explain NOBODY COMING UP WITH A LOGICAL EXPLANATION? I mean, It's already just a vague, unimportant matter to me, but at the time.....it was like WTF is going on?
-
I know some booms, far inland, can be the result of a storm on the coast. The waves hit the rocks and the vibration travels along a strata. It's rare, but documented.
Frostquakes are loud as hell. A little frightening too. Used to hear them all the time as a kid. Think of the sound of river ice breaking up.
It might also explain some of the horns. When thick ice cracks, it makes a zing noise. Pattern recognition applied to an unexpected sound could do the rest.
Or, the molemen may finally be tired of us intruding on their turf with drills. :laugh:
-
And the orange balls have been seen by too many for them all to be crazy...

I used to think it was classified drills/sonic booms from Oceana... the VA/Carolina coast is the playground but how do you explain the orange balls in the video?

I heard the sounds in the late Spring and Summer....so they couldn't have been due to cold temps.
Maybe fracking....but I think not.
Maybe it's a weapons system testing pattern.
Sort of like a laser beam, but able to compress/displace all oxygen? It would help explain these large die-offs, when thousands of birds suddenly fall out of the sky, or an entire pod of whales or sea mammals beach themselves?
Something's not right though......unless the internet has better informed us of the number of events taking place, etc.......and it's been going on since Adam and Eve.

Ball lightning? They are supposed to make a heck of a noise when they detonate. Sometimes. Other times they just fizzle out with a steam kettle sound.
Of course, no one knows what causes ball lightning in the first place - it was believed not to exist for years.

Explain in detail, please the trumpet sounds and other sounds.
I was about 5 miles from the ocean once and the walls shattered and house seemed to settle/move. Closer to the ocean and it all magnifies the intensity...
The local' seneca guns' story is odd. The video did not mention the oceans plate was shifting which IMO would be covered under the earthquake submenu of the subject. No wave is ever created. Why is it Clinton and I think Obama said they were going to unclassify UFO material and they never did?

CAUTION! The 1st guys's language is wanting. But that's the horn sound. And THAT'S on YOUTUBE....imagine if it's all around you?

We posted the same video but they say your New Yawker long island guy is in Canada?
Doesn't matter where they are as too many have documented it.
I have heard this noise in one of the movies I think?
Not mars attacks...that is funny and scary but one of the other movies?

IMHO, you are on the right path here. The world is a noisy place. From the aforementioned 'ice quakes' to distant thunder, to thousands of other things (not to mention human made sounds).
The internet has made the most mundane things appear unusual or sinister.
A good case in point is the recent Atlanta snow conspiracy theories that are going around. Just snow acting like snow, but someone who is uninformed (or just stupid) makes a video sounding sinister and suddenly everyone is sharing it and the story plays out like the old kindergarten story game- the more it goes around the more it changes.
Think of 'chemtrails'. Just normal airplane contrails but you get folks on the internet talking about it and suddenly condensation becomes chemical spray.

New Madrid?

They've been heard all over the world, Gazoo.
But I do believe it could be the New Madrid caldera or as previously suggest, the actual continental plates resisting each other.
-
These guys have done a good job exploring and explaining most of these. All instances are either mundane or out and out hoaxes.

I know I've heard some of the videos of the 'trumpet' sound and it sounds a lot like a Moose (either audio added to the video like one of the videos debunked in the link above or just the sound bouncing off surrounding mountains).

The Atlanta snowstorm had a mayor or somebody screw up. It is now almost as political as blaming Bush for Katrina. No socio/ politics involved in these booms.
-
Could be the tidal bulge.
It'd be interesting to see if these noises happen when the moon is in a general area of the sky.
Think of it like standing up and stretching. Sometimes your joints crack, sometimes they don't.

This is the Atlanta snow conspiracy I was referring to. A lot of folks need to go back to second grade science class.

No offense but how is that any different than the videos themselves? A message board thread of people who think they know this and that?
I am not defending the sounds but with so many hearing them the hoax debunked theory you presented on that page...would require someone to hoax many people all over CONUS and Canada with slow animal sounds? Scientists are baffled so any message board theory is about as precise as this thread of discussion.

The snow isn't real is not even worthy of discussion.

Explain not debunk (although that is the name of the site.) They are, for the most part, just normal sounds but with the internet, suddenly you have the normal becoming the sinister. That was the point of the 'Atlanta snow' video. It is something completely normal but on the internet, normal becomes sinister.
-

The point about that is how, on the internet, the normal suddenly becomes the sinister.

Simon and Garfunkel:
"The Sounds of Silence"
-
THIS IS THE BEST THREAD EVER!
Loud booms out of nowhere.
Unexplained random trumpet sounds.
Orange balls in the sky.
I thought it was just me.
I thought it was all that s#it I did in the 80's coming back for seconds.
I'm so relieved...
-
Hook a bro up - I'm out of the good stuff :laugh:
-
Perhaps someone is waiting for the walls to come down?
-
I could have sworn that I read and posted about an event where one of the "orange globes" of light crashed into the ground.
Authorities with HAZMAT suits gently placed it on a stretcher and slid it into a van ambulance...drove away, lights flashing.
The suggestion was that it was a living entity.
I'll try and find it again......
-
How else can you explain NOBODY COMING UP WITH A LOGICAL EXPLANATION?
I know what it is! Allah is announcing to muslims the coming of global warming. :silly:
-

Call Obama for some "foreign aid." :whistle: He has many suppliers in his background.
-

Perhaps it's the mating call of Big Foot! :thud:

I recall walking through the Amish Dutch Market once recently and the sound of the chicken being cook in those pressure cookers stopped me in my tracks. It was EXACTLY like that....only it sounded like it was coming from above. From everywhere.
And yet somebody who may live a couple miles away from you heard nothing.
What's even stranger is that like I said previously....typical humans seem to lose interest in trying to find out what the cause is.

It just isn't that hard to make a device that makes a lot of noise that carries a long way. A propane cannon is a good example...it generates a pretty loud bang that carries a long way in the right conditions. Another example is some form of siren. You can change the sound by the shape of the horns and the fan. Here's a quick vid on a Chrysler-Bell air raid siren of WWII vintage. These things were all over the West Coast and they have an interesting range as you can see....
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shqg4a-Ols8
Whatever these noises are, they are not magic.....
-
Not magic, but extraterrestrial. Spielberg's War of the Worlds used the same mechanical trumpet sounds in his remake. To good effect, I might add.
About all this? Arsenio Hall would say, "things that make you go, hmmm?"

Who would have A LOT of those things and sound them off for shits giggles and grins? Or are people just testing them all at the same time as they call for big foot to emerge from the mating call?
-
It is an opinion I read differently if 'one' has not experienced these strange sounds/happenings.
Having 'heard' thee odd booms,- my final answer If I am forced to form an opinion- is that it is classified military stuff.

Do you know how simple it is to make a rudimentary air horn that sounds like doom itself with enough air pressure?? I can put one together in a couple of days with plumbing parts...and it isn't that hard to coordinate anything these days....
