I guess it was probably back in the 1970’s when there were the booms off shore the east coast? A guy I knew was in the navy back them and told me they were dropping a-bomb depth charges on possible Soviet subs. I was young and half-way believed him. Now .....probably not? Those booms have been heard since colonial times. I don’t know if there are the methane deposits out that way - I wonder if they could be gas bubbles popping?

My apology to anyone enlisted, but.....

There has been some unusual Russian AND Chinese air activity.

My guess....it was a high speed scramble, maybe another airplane full of sick people?

Could be that, muslims spread a highly contageous compound in an America bound plane.

Heard it in Hammonton. Sounded kind of like distant artillary towards the south east. No tremor though.

Maybe, but wouldn't a meteor entering the atmosphere at an initial speed of 30,000+ mph leave a very pronounced vapor trail first before we hear the loud sonic boom, which is usually a "double bang" sound? Remember, when that meteor entered the atmosphere over Russia some years ago, people not only heard and felt the shockwave from the sonic boom of an object traveling several thousand miles per hour, but also saw the glowing meteor and the vapor trail behind it.

from last April:

http://www.nj.com/mercer/index.ssf/2015/04/bordentown_city_residents_report_mysterious_explos.html

From that article. Wonder if there is a thaw going on?:

Hand, of the Bordentown Township police, offered this possible explanation: the thawing of the ground due to the intense cold weather this winter. He said a few weeks ago, his wife heard a loud bang in their home, and he heard the same sound while watching television at about 10 p.m.

“It sounded like a car hit the back of our house,” Hand said. He checked the basement, and all his pipes were intact. He then learned from a television news program that the ground can make booming and loud cracking sounds when thawing from a prolonged cold period. “That’s just my two cents,” he said.

New Jersey residents reported shaking Thursday afternoon that the United States Geological Survey says was a sonic boom - not an earthquake.

The USGS said the sonic boom was recorded near Hammonton, N.J. - about a half-hour south of Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst.

“What we saw was something that was not consistent with an earthquake,” said William Yeck, a geophysicist with the USGS.

The Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, however, said the base did not hold exercises Thursday.

“We’ve also received reports of ground shaking here in South Jersey. We do not have any aircraft capable of producing a sonic boom and our training ranges are currently clear of operations,” according to a statement from the joint base on Facebook.

John Bellini, geophysicist with the USGS, initially said the shaking could have been from an earthquake or a sonic boom from a jet but “I don’t know.”

He said the USGS was investigating to determine what happened.

“We’ve gotten reports all the way from Long Island all the way down to southern New Jersey,” he said.

Karen Wall, a Patch editor who lives in Berkeley, reported feeling a rumbling like ”a large truck passing by on the street, strong enough to rattle the house.” The region had five loud rumbles that finally stopped
