I just stepped outside to do some work, and I heard an enormously loud and enveloping "WHOOSH" with a slight low frequency hum that quickly subsided. It continued for about ten-15 minutes. It was so loud that my wife and I could not communicate without yelling at each other at 20 feet apart.
It was clearly miles away. And the only thing I can think of is that in that exact direction, about ten miles away, is a large natural gas facility.
Here it is: https://www.google.com/maps/@37.4138666,-85.3956611,855m/data=!3m1!1e3?hl=en&authuser=0
It literally sounded like a rocket taking off (but never leaving the ground). Anyone hear any news on this yet?
There’s a pretty big gas pumping station at the intersection of Hobson Road and KY 527. That the one you thinking of?
Huge natural gas turbine pumping station. They might of had a “small leak” for a few minutes or purging crap out of the pipes. When your skin burns off in a quick flash its too late, so dont worry ‘bout it.
Sorry, it was me. Had Tex-Mex last night.
That was my first thought. Reminds me of the Dom DeLuise skit in “Blazing Saddle.”
You wouldn’t happen to be in a densely wooded area with a set of stairs nearby, would ya?
