We can add this to the list of recent skybooms around the US and world. The latest is in South Jersey and reports came in from Galloway, Franklin and Wild Crest. I mapped it and the area covers around 100 miles on the coast and inland.
The difference this time is the boom was accompanied by shaking. This would imply seismic activity but the USGS reports none occurred. The military has not taken blame either.

Update Insert 4/3/12: Here is another video recording from the same time by a different person. It’s strange but is it explainable?
——————–
The above video, posted on a popular conspiracy site, has the theorists in a tizzy. All sorts of fantastical explanations are being thrown around with my favorite being, “a test for a loudspeaker for Project Blue Beam”.
For those of you who don’t know, Project Blue Beam is the belief that NASA will create a big “space show” with three-dimensional holographic laser projections in the sky. The projections will be of a speaking multi-lingual Anti-Christ. I would imagine you need some bad-ass audiophile speakers for this.
This long titled video called, “Strange Sounds in the sky over Clearfield, Utah March 16th 2013 (03-16-13)” features a new kind of “strange sound”.
The witness says that just before noon, after a trip from the bank, he heard this odd sound and grabbed his cell phone just in time! It gave him a headache but he isn’t sure it’s related. Until now he thought the sky sounds were a crock but now he is a true believer. He posts a plea for anyone else who might have heard it to message him immediately.
One of the followers of this website found an interesting article regarding “strange sounds” from 1869.
This article is from something called Proceedings—The Meteorological Society, 1869. It appears to be letters sent to this association describing “strange sound” experiences.
See! People were hearing weird things 140 years ago. Maybe these booms, etc. are cyclical and that’s why we haven’t heard of them until recently.
When I read these letters I was amused at how these people go into elaborate descriptions of what they heard, comparing the sounds to all sorts of things.
So I got this bright idea to post excerpts of the letters along with whatever video I could find to illustrate the description.
Enjoy! You can also read it intact here.
Go to 4:25 secs.
A little background first.
In spring of 2011, residents of Windsor, Ontario, Canada began hearing and feeling unexplained humming and vibrating noises. Currently the source can’t be positively located.
It’s described as an idling diesel engine that keeps people awake at night. Some people have claimed it can cause physical symptoms. The noises is said to happen mostly late at night or early morning.
Here is a great video of tormented residents.
An older interview is here. A woman describes it as rattling the picture on her wall.
An earlier government study claimed the vibrations were coming from Zug Island, an industrial area right across the US border from Windsor. See here. Zug Island is a highly secure and guarded island protected by the US government. Some Youtube videos that someone made showing a sound meter pointed toward the island have been removed. I would imaging it’s illegal to point anything at a government protected facility. In certain places in the US you can’t even take pictures of bridges.
According to this article here, The University of Windsor is now doing a government funded study using something called a pentangular array. The device will concentrate on tracing the low frequency of the hum. The study will take 10 months to complete. Since a previous study suggested Zug Island, what will be done if the array proves it to be the source. I seriously doubt anything will be done at all.
Well this is certainly confusing. Here is a video claiming the strange sound heard in NYC before Sandy was the wind going thru the top of the new Freedom Tower.
Wind through the Freedom Tower makes sense. The top is open allowing the strong hurricane wind to vibrate the beams. The architects had better hope the design of this building doesn’t make it a tuning fork.
So what are these two videos from Toronto and an unknown location not in the city about? Toronto has tall buildings but not as tall as Freedom Tower and I doubt any new construction is open at the top. Why would the sound, however subtle, be in a rural area.
It is not likely these two videos were faked given they were filmed during the storm. Maybe it’s a coincidence, maybe it’s warning sirens in the distance, maybe they are dubbed. Until another convincing Sandy sound video surfaces I’m calling this case closed.
Hat tip to my old pal hfoded.
For those of you not familiar with this story I’ll synopsize posts from January regarding a mystery rumble in Sooke on Vancouver Island in British Columbia.
First I’ll start with the current story about an event that occurred March 15th.
Witnesses claim this wasn’t the same as the January rumbles in Sooke. They’re being experienced as blasts. Three blasts shook an area 8 kilometers outside of Sooke. Once again seismologists say an earthquake wasn’t to blame even though the area is on a fault line.
This time the rumbles brought down an old decrepit barn. I suppose it’s evidence that the blasts were very strong, however, the barn was in bad shape and probably the shaking just undermined the already crumbling structure.
A new business park being built nearby is possibly to blame, but keep reading below and you’ll see that last time it was blamed on blasting 40 miles away.
More information can be found in this article here.

Sooke, Whidbey, Sequim, Skagit County, Tacoma
Before I list the events leading up to this one I’m including a “sky roar” video that for some reason is more popular than most of them. See here for sky noise types. I can’t understand why it’s so amazing since we have much better examples documented on this site. This one happened in Tacoma, Washington on March 13th. Ignore the buzzing. The sound is the constant jet roar. Tacoma is 65 miles as the crow flies. I have added these two events to our map to the right.

Jan. 23rd: A loud rumbling described as a freight train sound disturbs residents of Sooke. It wasn’t attributed to an earthquake.
Jan. 25th: Rumble is explained as industrial blasting, 40 miles away in Sequim, Washington.
Jan. 29th: What seems to be described as the constant jet noises we hear in our “sky roar” videos is covered in and article from Whidbey Island, Washington. Article here.
Feb. 9th: A video of a constant rumble surfaces from Skagit County, Washington
March 15th: Mystery blasts cause rumbling that flattens an old barn and upsets residents. See video at top of post.
Don’t forget that although seismic activity was not recorded in any instance, these areas are near a fault line called the Cascadia subduction zone. See here.

UPDATE 1/6: Mike has posted the unedited footage below. Thanks Mike!
——————-
This “strange sound” in the video below was recorded January 31, by Mike Helms. It was witnessed at 4:00am, in a little town called Fish Creek, Wisconsin. Mike and his wife were vacationing in a hotel outside Peninsula State Park in Door County Peninsula. The recording was from their balcony facing the park. Fish Creek is on Fish Creek Harbor.
While looking for “strange sound” videos I initially dismissed this one. The reason was because it has title screens, doesn’t show the surroundings and has stereo sound (perhaps enhanced when edited). Mike left this video in the comments under my historical Yellowstone post here. He was interested in the article because it describes metallic sky sounds that occurred in 1893 in Yellowstone park. I theorize in the article that perhaps the sounds were related to small earthquakes. The area of Yellowstone where the sound events occurred is one of the most seismically active in the US. The sounds heard in 1893 were over a lake just as the Fish Creek incident was over a harbor. Both are large bodies of water.
Mike Helms from SongsofJesus.com describes what he heard in Fish Creek:
It sounded like super giant machinery in the sky and had an eerie ”metallic” sound that faded in and out. Like some spooky movie soundtrack! It was massive in the sense of being expansive and seemed to fill the air, as if whatever was causing it stretched from east to west.
Mike left a link to his video in the comments. He says:
I’ve been trying to find info on metallic sounds (which is what we heard) and the article you found about Yellowstone is really, really interesting!… What’s really interesting is that we heard metallic sounds 6 hours after the quake at McHenry, IL. But even more so that we heard it in Fish Creek WI, which is in the Door County Peninsula – the Niagara Escarpment runs right through there and ends at the Wisconsin-IL border where the quake took place. (See the article about the McHenry, Illinois earthquake here.)

A video above by James Firman. From the YT description:
Sorry but I hate to say this but I have just finished my analyse of the Strange Sounds In Conklin, and it is a fake the sound file used in the video is an 99.9% match for the first minute of the Ukriane Video. The top file is the Strange sounds in Conklin, Alberta Jan. 12/2012 and the other is from the Strange sounds in the Ukraine.
There’s nothing else to say about the metallic type of “strange sounds”. In this post Rusty Metal “Trumpets of Doom”: Strange Sounds in Saskatchewan here, I explain why the Saskatchewan videos are fake. Judging by the comments it’s clear that many people didn’t bother to read the post.
Remember, there are other types of sky sound videos that I believe to be true and probably natural. Now we can put this Kiev sound garbage to rest.
RIP Kiev hoaxes. I know some of you will say this is some sort of conspiracy and one person or group is producing these hoaxes. Wrong. They are all done by different people all over the world. It’s easy to do. They do it for money or to make us fools.
We’ve already determined the Conklin sound is a copy of the Kiev sound here. What we haven’t seen is a digital analysis. James Firman does a smack down of the metallic sound videos by comparing them to Kiev using special software. He’s analyzed many of the Kiev type videos listed below. As the Conklin hoaxer says in his YT description “Nuff said!” Amen.
Mr. Firman’s post from the comments:
I have compared all of the following with the sound file I took from the Original Ukraine film,
and guess what they ALL have used the same file to make there own video’s.

UPDATE 1/1: I overlooked something important. In the Unsolved Mysteries episode at the end of this post, victim Hal Runiana moved from Detroit to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. I think this is a connection because Windsor is directly across from Michigan. Coincidence? I wonder. What Hal heard couldn’t be recorded. Could it be the “hum” is just more intense in Windsor?
—————–
Two years ago residents of Windsor, Ontario, Canada began experiencing an unexplained humming or vibrating noise. The humming had diminished over the past six months but now it’s returned with greater intensity. A little background here.
It’s been described as an idling diesel engine and residents say the hum disturbs their sleep and is a constant annoyance. One resident claims he can feel it in his chest. A government study claims the vibrations are coming from Zug Island, an industrial area of Michigan here. They recommend more study to pinpoint the source.
Windsor resident Sonya Skillings in a Windsor Star interview here, says:
“We have picture frames on the wall and they were shaking last night,” Sonya Skillings, a mother of two, told The Star Sunday. “It’s never been that bad where we actually had things move on the walls.”
There is talk of legal action, but it’s not clear who to sue. More investigation is needed to pinpoint the source, however that appears to have stalled. Meanwhile, the residents have a real problem without an exact cause or remedy.

The witness claims the “noise” has returned to Oshawa and he filmed this January 29th at 9:00pm. It isn’t the same sound but it’s a sky roar. Oddly he doesn’t point out that it’s different. I take points off for not being able to see surroundings but it’s a plain old loud “sky roar“. What does this mean? Here we have the “snore” (I’m going to call it a sky dragon sound), and a week later we have a sky roar in the same place. We’ve never recorded the two “types” (see here) in the same place. If this is real, and it probably is, all signs point to the atmosphere as a source. The roar and the sky dragon sound are related and part of the same phenomenon. This is a huge connection that we’ve discovered. This kind of discovery is why I like writing this blog.
And here it is in Alaska. They thought it was jets and say it’s recurring. Both videos are far north, but this means nothing because we have examples from Florida. One thing is certain, sky roars are becoming more frequent.
