I have been a lurker on TM list since thread 2. I appreciate all of your efforts and want to thank each of you for your insight. I have become dependent on TM to stay informed. This is my first post to the list.
Last Friday (6/11) in the early morning around 1:30AM we heard a very loud boom with a brief flash of light. I was on the computer (freerepublic)and my husband and children were sleeping. The boom woke up everyone in the house. Just as my husband and I were dressing to go outside and take a look around we heard another very loud boom just like the first one and they were about 5 minutes apart. We went outside and our Thoroughbred horses were running around the paddock very frightened. We saw a few of our neighbors outside of their homes doing the same as we were. A few minutes later we heard sirens that seemed to stop a mile or so away. Then a police helicopter with a big search light started scanning our area. After about a half an hour it left. We went back inside and did not witness anything else out of the ordinary.
The boom sounded like what a very large transformer blowing out would if you were nearby. However there was no disruption to our power in the neighborhood. My husband said he thought it could have been a sonic type boom. We did not see anything in the news about it. We live in South Florida near Wellington/West Palm Beach.

Count is now up to 5 unexplained explosions in widely scatered areas since June 11.
This is getting alarming.
IF, I repeat, IF these are all meteors, there's something really unusual happening.
