Mysterious reports of tremors on a small Danish island in the Baltic Sea prompted a seismological investigation that points toward atmospheric pressure waves as the possible culprit. But as with other, similar events—which are surprisingly common around the world—confirming a cause remains elusive.
The tremors occurred on May 13 at around 3 P.M. local time, according to a statement from the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland, which operates two seismographs on the island of Bornholm.
The seismic data showed that the tremors were not caused by an earthquake, the agency says. And although the tremors occurred about 20 minutes after what might have been a minor blast in Poland, the scientists don’t think that caused the strange shaking, either...

I know it was a Danish island, but was Chris Christie anywhere near? Maybe he was going to announce to the Danes, that he is running for president. 😆

Wouldn’t the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland that reported the tremors know that if there were?
Or is that too obvious for you?
