Weve gotten email after email, not to mention Facebook posts, from people who say they're hearing a boom around the same time every night. Not even the Osceola County Sheriffs Office has an answer.
It was like a BOOM! Then, the windows kinda shook, said Kissimmee resident Daryl Mercado.
A loud BOOM sound
like they throwed a bomb, explained young AJ.
His mother, Lori Chezem, said, Loud booms. It reminds me of when the space shuttle used to come in -- the Sonic Boom.
Kids and adults alike are talking about it. But what exactly is it?
Chezem is in St. Cloud and was one of the people who emailed us about these mysterious booms. Were also hearing from people in Kissimmee and even as far away as Haines City in Polk County

Haven't heard anything here in west Marion Co. We HAVE seen quite a few choppers flying very low the past few months (not military looking).

Noticed in a photo from China that the oldest daughter of the First Caboose has inherited the characteristic.

We hear something like this frequently.
Ft Stewart is about 30 miles SW of here and 155mm guns do make the windows rattle.

Well, there’s not a single seismic event in Florida that would register an explosion (mining, excavation, etc.).
So it’s either military (ground, filtered from USGS data), or airborne.
If it rattles windows and isn’t felt as a tremor, it’s aircraft. Rather academic.

This is just another case of the media not knowing it’s butt from a hole in the ground.
This location is only a few miles from The Avon Park Bombing Range.
Yes folks a real live bombing range for the Fast Mover community.
So ya think a 2000 lb bomb won’t make a noise?

I know what you mean but in reading the Mother's comments she sounded literate, so maybe young AL is, well, just young.

I couldn’t help but notice she is wearing a bikini made from picnic basket material. No further comments will be offered.

In Houston, too, when fighter jets go Mach. It would rattle the fish in the aquariums.
