ZetaTalk Q&A for February 25, 2012:
My question is regarding the YouTube strange sounds video posted by Gerard yesterday: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUdZGm476yA On the Strange Sounds blog I posted a response as follows: Not trying to discredit anyone on the Montana video/audio. I believe what is recorded. But I'd really be interested in Zeta feedback on it because it reminds me of what happened in Close Encounters of the Third Kind - the musical sounds that the spacecraft emitted. The sound produced in Missoula is what is called in music a major seventh chord. In the key of C it would be C-E-G-B; in this case with an extra underlying G as the first note. I have a hard time believing that anything in nature could create this without help - possibly ET help. The notes are played separately up the scale/chord and then down the scale/chord. Could the Zetas please comment on what the source might be?

Missoula lies in a valley between mountain ranges that are riddled with rivers draining the steep mountain sides. If Kiev has multi-tonal trumpets because the reservoir is vibrating, and Belarus has horns because the river there is vibrating, then why should Missoula be exempt? The regions where the vibrating Earth plays music are where water is being vibrated. Elsewhere, it sounds like a roar, like Godzilla rising from the sea and roaming the land. Noise is sound where every frequency is heard. Music is controlled such that harmonics, or coinciding or duplicating frequencies are heard.
That several distinct tones were heard in Missoula, each in turn, only means that the body of water producing them increased its frequency from tone to tone. In Kiev, chords were heard, as more than one arm of the reservoir was set to vibrating. The thrumming or fan beating sound that preceded the Missoula tones was the rock layers being pulled apart, as the N American continent is being pulled into a bow, as we have often explained. As the jerking apart and rebound of the underlying rock layers picked up the pace, the pitchof the music the nearby river produced climbed. Simple as that.

ZetaTalk from the Jan, 21 2012 Q&A:
Strange sounds are heard all over the world! Can the Zetas comment? http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message1756314/pg1 [and from another] My question pertains to the noises, similar to the ones heard in Kiev, happening over the past week all over the world. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZ2ZcmMxehk&feature=channel_video_title Here is a video compilation of some of the places experiencing these noises, some of the videos have been accused of being a hoax, and the essence of my question for the Zetas is; what is going on? I've managed to locate some videos from Australia, posted recently, that seem to verify what others have posted from other users located in different parts of Australia, one of the videos located here. It would appear we are seeing the "Kiev Effect" taking place worldwide now, and only recently on this scale; there is obviously more to this than meets the eye, would the Zetas care to comment?

Where initially only a hum, and only in certain notorious parts of the world, rock under stress has become noisy. Known as the Taos hum, the sound of a diesel engine running somewhere underground was an early entry. Then the Seattle drums entered the arena, rhythmic booming which was ascribed to flapping manhole covers. Booms from snapping and heaving rock were reported in the New Madrid region and humming along the St. Lawrence Seaway increased.
But in 2011, it became clear that where we predicted that the Earth would moan during the 5.9 days of rotation stoppage, it was not going to be silent between then and now. The trumpets of Kiev and the horns of Belarus went viral on the Internet, followed quickly by a roar over Tampa Bay that sounded like Godzilla emerging from the sea. Now, in early 2012, this has spread to the drums of Costa Rica and the howl of Alberta and the Borneo snore.
Where is this leading? At least half the Earth, at any given point in time, will be having some sort of tension in its rock. Clapping and grinding fault lines, vibrating bodies of water, trembling rock strata resisting being pulled apart, and snapping rock under compression or being bent. All will be noisy, and the most likely reaction among those who hear it will be to conclude that the End Times have arrived. However known in various cultures around the world, allhave some reference to the coming times. The establishment will be unable to explain away these sounds, and once again the Internet will be sought and will lead inevitably to our explanations.

Is it the mysterious sound of the so-called coming Apocalypse? Some think that the mysterious sound heard in Costa Rica at around 12:30am this morning is exactly that.
Ronny Quintero, a seismologist said the event should be studied at the exact time and location of the anomalies to determine with certainty that there was no earthquake. He added that depending on the location of those who claim they heard the rumble or ”The Hum” it is easy to dismiss the possibility of tectonic movements.
This news has rattled the social web whereas Costa Ricans and the world over are scrambling to figure out what this mysterious sound could have been. Authorities have yet to comment on the subject although OVSICORI, the Costa Rica Volcanologist and Seismologist Organization is saying there is no Earth movements recorded at the time of the strange sound.
Here is a YouTube video showing how it sounded.
It is important to note that this is not the wind nor was it filmed anywhere near the ocean. The sound was heard throughout the entire country from Heredia to Perez Zeledon.

ZetaTalk from the Jan, 14 2012 Q&A:
SOZT
There is a subset of the Caribbean Plate called the Panama Plate, though this subset moves as one with the Caribbean Plate. Nevertheless, there is a fault line running through Costa Rica, and during the incessant pressure of the slow moving S American roll fault lines can pull apart and bang back together again, like clapping. As the recent cold spells in India reveal, the N Pole of Earth is pushed violently away when the Sun is over New Zealand and the magnetic N Pole of Earth (currently over Siberia) comes up over the horizon. This equates to midnight in Costa Rica, which is when the drums were heard. Residents there should get used to these midnight drums, which will be with them for some time.

Mystery booms shake things up in Stonington, CT
Colin Young
Publication: theday.com
Old Mystic Fire Chief Kenneth Richards Jr.’s Lantern Hill Road home “physically shook,” at 9:09 this morning: “That was the loudest, the first one.” But there would be two more “just incredible, boom, like explosions,” in the next thirty minutes. The 911 calls came in one after the other, he said, from Al Harvey Road in Stonington to Cow Hill Road in Groton.
“Even residents on River Road in Groton felt it. They said plates fell off kitchen cabinets and pictures fell off the walls,” Richard said.
So what happened this morning? What were the tremors and booms that rattled, literally, folks?
“Nothing worse when I can’t tell the people what happened. I just have no idea,” he said.
And he’s checked.
Richards said Homeland Security has confirmed there was no military activity (flyovers of aircraft, for example) that could have caused the sounds) and he said there was no seismic activity.
And, Richards said, despite suggestions it may have been construction blasting, he said there are “no permits for blasting around here. We checked.”
“We have no reports of homes being damaged by these booms and no reports of electricity being out,” he said. “There are no incidents that people have reported that would be the cause of these loud noises.”Area residents said they heard three loud booms each about 15 minutes apart, beginning at about 9:15 a.m. Friday.
“I’ve never been in an earthquake, but the third one felt like what I think an earthquake would feel like,” Nancy Peta, of Old Mystic, said. “It sounded like a propane tank had exploded, or a plane crash.”
Peta said the booms shook her house and prompted neighbors to congregate on the street to see if anyone knew what had happened. She said she did not notice any smoke in the area.
State police from Troop E were sweeping the area, including Ledyard and North Stonington, a spokesman said, but hadn’t found the source for the reports of an explosion.
Desmond said police officers and firefighters are still investigating.
At 9:18 a.m., the Old Mystic Fire Department tweeted that firefighters were dispatched to 24 Main St. for a reported explosion.
“We are dealing with a situation in Old Mystic concerning possible explosions,” Stonington First Selectman Ed Haberek wrote on Facebook. He said the police and fire departments were on scene investigating.
A spokeswoman from Connecticut Light & Power said the utility company did not have any problems with its equipment in the area.

Lies, Lies and more Lies from the Cover Up Crowd!!!
As a Canadian this is news to me and my family:
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/frost-quakes-wake-toronto-res...
Do they really think that we are that stupid??? Honestly, while I don't argue that ice may cause loud booms in outdoor electric breakers and ice, the fact that this covers much of southern Ontario would tell you that it has more to do with the St. Lawrence seaway rip then ice expanding and melting. Its like Canada doesn't experience snow every year!

Mysterious Booms Rattle Central Virginia (Jan 5)
Some call them booms while others referred to them as explosions. Some said the noises were so intense that they rattled their homes.
“It’s a loud, loud boom,” Clint Lanier, who lives in Chesterfield County, told CBS 6 senior reporter Wayne Covil. “It’ ain’t no shotgun and it ain’t no kind of gun. It’s like an explosion.”
Sgt. Rob Ruxer with Colonial Heights police said dispatchers received at least three calls just before 5:30 p.m. Sunday from citizens in separate areas of the city about a loud noise.
“There was a large boom. I thought it was thunder,” Kelsey Barnes of Colonial Heights said. “It kind of shook the house a little bit, but I have no idea what it was.”
Officials have not been able to tie the booms to one specific area, but they have been reported for the past several weeks.
“Well it definitely grabs your attention and you think, ‘why on earth is that going on at this time?” said Carolyn Thompson of Colonial Heights.
Those who have heard the boom said it does not happen again for several days – and the sound varies.
John Thompson, who heard the boom In Colonial Heights, said it sounded like a Sonic Boom from a jet. He said he did not think it was fireworks because there was only one boom.
Colonial Heights residents Susan Crane, who also lives in, said she was watching TV when she heard the boom Sunday.
“I’ve heard it numerous times,” Crane said. “I usually get up and look out my door, like I’m going to see something, but there’s nothing to see.”
CBS 6 News checked area surveillance cameras across the city and could not find sign of the boom. With every recurrence, there has been no revelation about what or who is behind them.
Colonial Heights Fire Chief A.G. Moore said his department does not have any additional leads about what is actually the noise folks are hearing from Chester to southern Chesterfield and Colonial Heights.
On social media there is a lot of speculation about what could be causing the booms.
But CBS 6 has determined the booms are not coming from Fort Lee or Fort Picket. It was not the rock quarry in Dinwiddie or Chesterfield. Additionally, it was not a transformer or a sonic boom.

More Mysterious Booms in Central Virginia (Jan 11)
Area residents are wondering what's been causing loud booming sounds that have been heard throughout the region.
"We had calls from the 1700 block of Westover Avenue this morning," Petersburg Police spokeswoman Esther Hyatt said. She added that officers cleared up from the area when nothing was detected that would have caused the sound.
She added that others at the Petersburg Bureau of Police said that they heard the same noise this morning in Colonial Heights and that some had heard the sound last week and thought perhaps "it was military-related."
But, officials at Fort Lee say it isn't their doing.
"We're not the source of the booms," said Stephen Baker, Fort Lee Public Affairs Officer. "We do sometimes do training at the range on post which sometimes involves the use of small explosives or simulators but nothing to the magnitude of what's been heard."
Additionally, Baker added that he had heard from members of the community asking whether similar sounds that were heard over the holidays originated on post. "But, our range was closed over the holidays and we only resumed training earlier this week," Baker said.
Colonial Heights Police Sgt. Rob Ruxer said that the department didn't receive any calls about the loud noise Friday morning, but that some calls were received on the evening of Jan. 5.
"We have no idea of the source," Ruxer said. While the police didn't receive any official reports on the noise, he said the sound had been heard around 6 a.m. Friday on Covington Road.

Mystery Boom Heard Across East Yorkshire UK (Jan 9)
Baffled families were woken by a mysterious loud bang heard across East Yorkshire early this morning. Dozens of people from Hull to Withernsea took to social media after hearing the noise echo through the skies at about 3.30am.
Others posted about the sound from as far away as Cleethorpes and Derby. Many believed a thunderclap was to blame but the Met Office said there was no storm in the area at the time.
Writing on the Mail's Facebook page, Alan Key said the noise "woke us up and scared us to death. People say it was thunder but to me it sounded more like an explosion."
Friends in Beverley and west Hull told Mr Key they also heard the sound. Karen Holdstock, who lives in the Greatfield estate, said it woke her too.
Michelle Ketley posted saying she was frightened by how sudden it was.
She wrote: "I've been thinking about it all morning. I was shaking when it woke me up and I'm not scared of thunder at all. It was very bizarre."
Sharing her experience with a friend, Corrine in Derby wrote: "I think it was just the one time but it was unreal. Never heard anything like it in my life."
Met Office forecasters reviewed satellite images for the Mail and said although cloud cover at the time suggested there had been rain, there was no evidence of stormy weather or lightning strikes.
A spokeswoman said: "I can't really see anything that would indicate a thunderstorm. The satellite shows banks of cloud going over but I can't see anything that would cause a loud bang."

Jan 18, 2014 @2-4 pm in Sarasota Florida - BOOOOOOM! I can't believe I heard it & thought oh it must be a plane. Clearest bluest sky, not single thing in sky but sun. Later that evening over dinner I asked my friend if she heard a loud boom early & she jumped up from the table 'you heard it too! From here??' She was at her work about 8 miles away & was with about 15 people inside a car dealership. They ALL went outside to the garage to see if a car fell off a lift or something & about 10 people more had heard it also! Everyone brushed it off as a meteorite breaking thru atmosphere bc there wasn't any planes in the sky. Amazed they even considered a meteorite! After dinner I searched online to see if any meteorites were reported & called the sheriffs office to report it and inquire if any other calls had come in regarding a loud boom lasting several minutes kind of like a low flying 747 airplane or a longer lasting sonic boom. Nothing! But myself and about 30 others in different locations heard it! We noticed the moon was a late riser & Orion constellation was higher in the sky compared to night before... Told my friend boom was from earth movements & showed her the clutch of articles here, her mouth was still hanging open when she left bewildered! But was at least relaxed of having a better idea what the loud long boom was from.

Another Mystery Boom in Central Virginia (Jan 19)
Following reports of unexplained booms on Jan 5 and Jan 11, there was another report on Sunday of a loud boom in Colonial Heights.
One blast was heard just after 4 p.m. at a home near the Colonial Heights-Chester line.
“This time it shook the house!”
Ruth J Perry said she heard a “loud, explosion-type sound” on Chesterfield County’s southside.
Diana Penn, who said this is the third boom she has heard this month, said the latest one at 4:10 p.m. was the closed one she has felt.
In fact, Penn said the first two blasts were from the southwest. She said Sunday’s boom sounded closer — as if it was from the southeast and did not have the telltale rumble sound afterward,.
The latest boom was heard on the southside of Chesterfield County, Prince George, Ettrick, Matoaca and the Shepherd Stadium, Sherwood Hills and Tussing neighborhoods in Colonial Heights, according to social media reports.

Unexplained Booms Continue to Rock Kentucky and Illinois, Residents Want Answers (Jan 19)
For the past two days, people in Kentucky and Illinois have reported hearing loud, jolting booms.
More than 500 comments on Facebook were posted on Jan 19 from people who say they have all heard and felt the same thing in counties across western Kentucky and southern Illinois. Public safety officials are trying to figure out what's causing the noise while people brace themselves for the next big boom.
Leon Cunningham has been living in Livingston County for more than 25 years and says he's familiar with the sights and sounds in his neighborhood. But, over the weekend, he heard something different. He said, "It was just... boom! I mean, you could hear it. It was loud." It was also jarring. "It just shook this whole neighborhood and shook all these houses. In here, stuff rattled on the shelves."
After all the trinkets settled, the rumors started. "Everybody was coming out in the neighborhood wondering what's going on. I've even had people say, 'Are we being invaded?'" One of many questions that there aren't any answers for yet. "We have no idea if there's going to be another one this evening, today, this afternoon, or what. We don't know how long this is going to continue or anything. Nobody does," said Cunningham.
It's a mystery making noise in communities and leaving people on pins and needles. Livingston County Emergency Management Director Brent Stringer said all of the rumors have been ruled out. The booms are not being caused by weather, seismic activity, rock quarries, gun shows, or explosives. Stringer said his office will continue chasing the booms until they figure out what they are.

Unexplained Booms in Missouri and Illinois (Feb 3)
Residents in St. Francois County heard Jarring noises that sounded like gunshots and fireworks all night long early Monday.
Dave and Charlene Hagerty live in Ter du Lac and between midnight and six Monday morning they heard all sorts of loud noises.
She posted her experience on Facebook and found out at least a half dozen people across St. Francois County heard similar things in Bonne Terre, Park Hills, Farmington and Ter du Lac.
She did some research on the internet and discovered what they all heard may have been frost quakes.
Similar noises have also been heard near Quincy, Illinois, as well as nearby Hannibal, Missouri and as far south as St. Louis in recent days (all of which are located on the ever-widening Mississippi River).

Mysterious Noises & Vibrations in Chicago (Feb 3)
Residents in Hyde Park have reported a strange trembling in the neighborhood.
“The sound was quite variable, at times somewhat like a locomotive, at times somewhat like your giant fan, at times like something grinding away,” said Caroline Herzenberg, who lives at 1700 E. 56th St.
Others said they experience it more as a vibration or a change in air pressure.
“It’s not as sharp as a change in pressure in an airplane, but it’s similar,” said Ann Marie Miles, who lives at 5490 S. Shore Drive, adding that she only experiences it when she is in her apartment in the afternoon.
Others have reported a vibration that shakes their windows or a low-level hum.
All said the phenomenon lasts less than five minutes and happens even if the obvious causes like trains or trucks are not present. Those who have reported experiencing the trembling all live within three blocks of the Metra tracks from 58th to 55th streets. Most report the source of the phenomenon appearing to come from deep underground.
A spokesman for the Chicago Department of Transportation said there was no recent work on underground infrastructure owned by the city in the area.

Loud Booms in Western Kentucky and Central Alabama (Feb 7)
A series of strange noises awakened Murray, Kentucky residents in the pre-dawn hours Friday, causing law enforcement agencies to answer several calls related to mysterious sounds that were being reported.
Both the Murray Police Department and the Calloway County Sheriff’s Office said resulted in a rash of calls between 2 and 4 a.m.
“Loud bangs was the main thing,” said Rick Harris, day shift supervisor for MPD, who went on duty at 6:30 a.m. Friday, but was hearing about the activity from overnight during the shift change. “They were busy here, and we had our officers drive all over town it sounded like. One interesting part that came from it, though, is that one of our officers apparently had reported that one of the traffic lights near Cracker Barrel (on North 12th Street across from Roy Stewart Stadium at Murray State University) was acting unusual.
Six hours later, reports of a loud boom was heard across Jefferson County, Alabama.
Residents are reporting hearing the "explosion-like" blast about 10:15 a.m. Many claim to have heard it; some claim to have felt it.

Loud Booms in Central Oklahoma (Feb 14)
The Logan County Sheriff's Department said there were multiple calls throughout the day reporting the explosions, but deputies were unable to locate any smoke or debris.
Nancy York, who lives about four miles south of Guthrie, said she began hearing what she described as “loud booms” about 10 a.m. and continued to hear them until after 6 p.m.
At 6:20 p.m. a 3.1-magnitude earthquake was measured four miles south of Guthrie and 11 miles northeast of Edmond, the U.S. Geological Survey reports.
The USGS did not report any other earthquakes in the area Friday, though the Oklahoma Geological survey reported smaller quakes in the area throughout the day.
York said she found cracks in her walls, floors and front porch after the booms.
“I would hear the explosions and then my whole house would shake,” she said. “Usually when there are earthquakes, there's no loud sound like that.”
York said she called the sheriff's office several times before they came to her house to investigate. When they came, she said, there was another boom that shook the house again.
She said officers couldn't give any explanation other than earthquakes.
Other residents in southern Logan County near Seward Road and Broadway also reported hearing a series of loud booms Friday.
Logan County deputies said they've been responding to reports of loud explosions for the past few weeks.
Melinda Traynor, who lives in the Cinammon Ridge subdivision, said she thinks the tremors are making her home stink. The odor inside her house is so powerful it woke her from a dead sleep around 3:30 a.m. Friday.
“I woke my husband up and said ‘I think I smell gas, honey,’” Traynor said.
She searched her entire home and found a fresh crack across the floor of her garage, but not the source of the stench.
Oklahoma Natural Gas later inspected the home and said the strange smell wasn’t natural gas.
Quakes throughout the day rattled Traynor’s home and her nerves.
“We are a little spooked, even the dogs are spooked,” she said.
Traynor said the quakes shook a keepsake off her wall sending it tumbling to the ground.
“I didn’t make the connection between the earthquakes and the smell until we had a second set of earthquakes. As soon as the two hit back to back about 10 minutes apiece the whole house just filled up again,” Traynor said.

Residents Baffled by Terrifying Loud Booms in Oklahoma
If you hear a bang in the night in Oklahoma, it's probably not a monster, but could something worse -- an earthquake.
Across the south central state, 20 earthquakes were reported to The United States Geological Survey on Saturday alone. One of those quakes in the Edmond area had a magnitude of 3.5.
But residents are puzzled as to why the quakes are occurring so frequently and making such alarmingly loud noises.
"Felt like bombs going off. It's just a huge loud noise and then it's like a reverb from that boom that just shakes the entire house," Logan County resident Nancy York told ABC News affiliate KOCO-TV in Oklahoma City.
Similar booms have been heard across other states including Indiana, South Carolina, Ohio and Rhode Island in the last month. All of these regions are active areas on the USGS seismic hazard map.
Seismologist Austin Holland with the Oklahoma Geological Survey said that the unexplained noises are a result of sound waves emitting deep from within the earth before erupting. Residents might not know it's an earthquake because the shaking may be too slight to detect.
"We have no way to predict the future. Earthquakes aren't predictable," Holland said. "Certainly the more earthquakes we have, the more likely we are to have a larger one."

More Loud Booms Alarm South Carolina Residents (Feb 22)
Dispatchers said the calls came mainly from within Chesnee city limits. Officers did not find a cause for the booms.
This is at least the third time loud booms have disturbed Chesnee neighborhoods.
The same type of calls came into 911 dispatch on Feb 7 and Jan 20.
South Carolina experienced a rare 4.1 magnitude quake on Feb 14.

Dispatchers: 'Booms' heard Monday night are from Ft. Knox or quarry
February 24, 2014
Agency dispatchers said they believe the loud blasts are coming from either Fort Knox or a rock quarry in the Zoneton area (Shepherdsville).
They said they have no other explanation for the consistent booms. There is no emergency.
Question: If the booms are originating from Fort Knox or Shepherdsville, why are 5 of 6 of the green pointers ("haven't heard a boom") the closest to these areas?

Loud Boom in S. Georgia Blamed on Beaver Dam Explosion (Feb 22)
Most people blowing up beaver construction work use Tannerite, a stable explosive that is widely available, said Capt. Jeff Swift, head of the Georgia Department of Natural Resource’s Law Enforcement Division office in Albany.
“That’s been going on for some time,” Colquitt County Emergency Management Director Russell Moody said Tuesday. “It’s been going on all over the county.”
The explosion was felt at a distance of about seven miles from the city limits, some residents reported structures shaking.
Using the chemical to blow beaver dams is not illegal, and the rodent is not a protected species, meaning they are fair game, Swift said.
While not illegal to use Tannerite for beaver control, caution is necessary, especially at night, Swift said.
“I’m not going to say it’s not dangerous,” he said. “Not to mention shooting high-powered rifles at night to set off the catalyst to create an explosion.”
Eleven p.m. or later is not the best time to do the work, he said.
“We would suggest that they not do it at that time,” Swift said. “One, when you shoot, you’ve got to identify the target and the area behind the target. Number two, you have people who are trying to sleep.”

Vibrating Gwinnett Co. homes mystify neighbors - February 17
GWINNETT COUNTY, Georgia -- It is a steady staccato beat, unerring and continuous. Just low enough in frequency to be annoying, yet strong enough to literally shake a house.
Several in fact.
Nerves too have been shaken in this community along Little Mill Road in Gwinnett County, when neighbors awoke to the strange vibrations.
11Alive News called over to the Tellus Science Museum and asked them to check the seismograph: no earthquake activity in the area. The same residents felt it when that quake hit in South Carolina a couple of weeks back.

Loud Boom in Calgary Remains Unexplained (Mar 4)
Emergency services were slammed with phone calls about a loud boom heard and felt across the region, but multiple firefighters and cops scouring more than half a dozen neighbourhoods couldn't find any evidence of an explosion.
After an hour or so of searching the communities of Hidden Valley, Tuscany, Evanston, Nose Valley, Ranchlands, Edgemont and Silver Springs, firefighters and cops gave up the search for an answer.
"We can't have rigs out in these temperatures for hours on end ... (that's) just not a prudent use of resources," fire battalion chief Allan Ball said.
"We don't even know where this came from."
An expert with the University of Calgary says that a seismic monitoring station, which could have shed light on the mysterious explosion, was offline at the time.
ENMAX says there were no gas or power outages and Lafarge says crews were not conducting any controlled detonations in gravel pits.
Military aircraft have also been ruled out.
It also wasn’t likely a frost quake, Ball said, though it was considered a possibility at one point during the search.

The strong underground noise woke many Chileans- CHILE
Thursday March 6, 2014
An earthquake of 5.7 degrees shook central Chile
The movement felt this morning in 57 cities. No casualties were reported.
SANTIAGO DE CHILE, Chile -. An earthquake measuring 5.7 degrees on the Richter scale, "with much noise underground" shivered this morning to four regions of central Chile, with no casualties or damage were reported.
According to the National Seismological Centre, University of Chile, the tremor was felt at 01.37 local whose epicenter was 38 miles northwest of Valparaiso and 59.5 kilometers deep.
The earthquake affected regions of Valparaíso, Santiago Metropolitan, O'Higgins and Maule, according to a report from the National Emergency Office (Onemi) under the Chilean Interior Ministry.
The strong underground noise woke many Chileans levantararon thinking about a new earthquake, especially after the series of earthquakes that were felt heavily in central and northern Chile.
About two hours before the earthquake phenomenon, many people were calling local stations denouncing underground noises, but no authority could give explanations.
According to Onemi, the earthquake affected a total of 57 cities and towns with intensities ranging between six and two degrees in international Mercalli scale, ranging from 1 to 12.

Mystery Boom on the Mississippi in Iowa (Mar 10)
Viewers on both sides of the river from Davenport to Rock Island have called, emailed and sent Facebook messages to the TV-6 newsroom asking about a mysterious rumbling and loud boom.
"I heard a really loud boom," said Chris Rice.
"I heard a rumble," said Tanisha Douglas.
" I heard a pretty big explosion," said Logan Edwards.
The noise was so loud that many said it caused homes and businesses to shake.
"I expected to see a mushroom cloud when I went out there off in the distance," said Rice.
Contacted were the police and fire departments, the airport, the Rock Island Arsenal and even a meteorologist about what it could be, but no one knows.
"I haven't heard anything that loud since leaving Iraq in 2007," said Edwards.
"It sounded like something really big on the street. Like something rolling by on the street and then there was a rumble, too," said Douglas
Whether the noise was a rumble, explosion or boom, some of you tell us, this isn't the first time you've heard it.
"On January 14th I heard the sound," said Rice. "I'm used to hearing really loud sounds because I live near the river. I hear trains, barges. I've always lived near the arsenal. I hear all types of sounds, but this one was way louder."
The mystery remains unsolved....

Mysterious Booms Worry Central Florida Residents (Mar 19)
Many people in central Florida have been hearing a boom around the same time every night. Not even the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office has an answer.
“It was like a ‘BOOM!’ Then, the windows kinda shook,” said Kissimmee resident Daryl Mercado.
People in Kissimmee, St. Cloud and even as far away as Haines City in Polk County have reported hearing these mysterious booms.
They start around 10 p.m. and they like thunder. Mercado said he’s heard them over the past three weeks.
He was studying the second time it happened, but he grabbed his flashlight to see what it was.
Mercado isn’t the only one puzzled by this. We reached out to the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office, but a spokesperson said they don’t have any answers either.

Mystery Boom Rattles Southwest Oklahoma (Mar 26)
In southwest Oklahoma, many of us are used to the rolling thunder, or even Fort Sill's artillery popping. But what Stephens County experienced Wednesday night was something different.
"I asked my husband, I was like, 'what was that?' he said I think it was thunder and I said 'no I don't think so!'," said one Duncan resident.
The boom was so loud, those who heard it weren't the only ones shaken by its power.
"I know it hit pretty hard though, because it shook the stuff in my house," said another Duncan dweller.
"I actually wanted to run out of the house because it shook the house," said one worried Duncan resident.
It was enough to grab the attention of the Duncan Police Department and the Stephens County Sheriff's Office. Sheriff Wayne McKinney says this event isn't entirely uncommon.
"Over the past year, we've had calls out in the county where people have heard explosions or what they thought was explosions," said Sheriff McKinney.
Over the past twenty-four hours, the boom was reported in Bray, Duncan, Marlow, even Cotton and Tillman counties.

Mystery explosions that go bang in the night shake Highgate and Muswell Hill homes
Friday, April 4, 2014
5:43 PM
Mysterious “explosions” causing houses to shake in Highgate have become the focus of a police investigation.
Several people living in Priory Gardens said they regularly hear deep booms that have been likened to the sound of a gas explosion.
The noise is so loud that many say it causes their houses to shake in their foundations.
TV producer Carrie Kirkpatrick, said: “It’s just so mysterious. Sometimes it’s more than once a week and then you don’t hear it for a while.
“Friday night seems to be most popular. It can be at any time between 10pm and midnight.
“I’m still awake at that time, and my eight-year-old says, ‘I wish the loud bangs would stop’.”
The mother-of-one has reported the noises, which were first heard 18 months ago, to police and Haringey Council.
Both were unable to identify where the sounds might be coming from and will continue investigations into the cause of the explosive booms. Residents in Wellfield Road, Muswell Hill, have also reported hearing the noises.
Those who have heard the explosions have also reported seeing flashes in the sky, but they don’t believe the noises could be from fireworks.
Some suggested the sounds may be caused by excavation work at Shepherd’s Hill allotment.
But the team in charge of the green space said no excavation work has taken place at the times people have reported hearing the noises.
An electrical substation in Shepherd’s Hill has also been considered as a possible source of the bangs. Others have come up with more inventive explanations.
“Some people have asked, could it be fracking or military manoeuvres?” Ms Kirkpatrick said. “It’s Highgate, it’s not military manoeuvres.
“They said it could be the Underground, but they wouldn’t be doing explosive work at night without telling us.
“Some of my friends are suggesting it is a paranormal occurrence. I think we need to stalk out the woods at night.”
Cllr Lyn Weber, independent member for Crouch End on Haringey Council, said it was an “intriguing mystery”.
“I wondered whether it was something to do with the big basement works [at Witanhurst house] up in Highgate,” she said.
Residents should report the explosion sounds to Haringey Council’s noise team on 020 8489 0000.

More mystery ‘explosions’ in Highgate baffle experts
Thursday, April 10, 2014
10:00 AM
Noise experts are scratching their heads over mysterious “explosions” in Highgate – after dozens of residents reported hearing another loud bang this week.
People living in the Shepherd’s Hill and Archway Road area of Highgate said they heard a loud explosion noise – similar to a bomb or gas explosion – just before 10pm on Monday.
Last week, the Ham&High reported that residents in Highgate have been hearing the loud booming sounds for about 18 months.
Officers from Haringey Council’s noise team are investigating but the local authority has been left baffled by the phenomenon.
Will Wheatcroft, 31, said he heard the latest “very loud explosion” while sitting on the sofa with his fiancée Stephanie in his Stanhope Road home.
“Really it sounded like a car bomb or a gas explosion,” he said. “It made us turn around and say, ‘What the hell was that?’
“I expected to hear sirens a few minutes afterwards, but there weren’t any. After reading the Ham&High, I can now understand why, because it happens a lot.”
Residents in Muswell Hill and Crouch End have also reported hearing the noises, that are said to be so loud they shake the foundations of their homes.
One Twitter user reported hearing another loud bang on Tuesday night at about 10pm in Crouch End. A couple in Priory Gardens, Highgate, have contacted Haringey police about the sounds.
Ruled out
But after a short investigation a spokesman advised residents to alert the council’s noise team instead, unless it is an emergency.
The National Grid has ruled out gas explosions in the area while UK Power Networks said the bangs could not be caused by an electrical substation in Shepherd’s Hill Allotments.
The Met Office said there was no thunder or lightning on Monday night and Thames Water said the noises could not be caused by sewer repairs in Langdon Park Road and Northwood Road, Highgate. Haringey Council restricts building works to working hours, TfL is not carrying out explosive works at Highgate Underground station, Archway Road.
Mr Wheatcroft speculated it could be sonic booms caused by aeroplanes breaking the sound barrier. But a spokesman from the Department of Transport said they would be heard across a much larger distance if they were the source.
A council spokesman said it could be “kids with bangers” playing in Queen’s Wood, Muswell Hill, but none of the council’s noise team officers had a probable explanation for the explosions.
The local authority will now work with Haringey police to try and identify their source.
In an online poll, Ham&High website voters thought the noises were most likely caused by a faulty substation or UFOs.

Mystery Booms Heard Across West Central Florida (May 7)
A series of loud booms heard across Tampa Bay and parts of Lakeland today is confounding law enforcement officials.
Many say they woke up to shaking windows and a loud noise, but no one knows what caused it.
“The house literally shook, said Polk County resident,” Arlene Sambursky
Others heard it and called 911. Some even called the fire department.
“We heard this big big bang!,” said one 911 caller.
“The only way I can describe it is two loud tremors," a 911 caller told an operator.
The noise was so loud people from Polk to Pasco County dialed 911 to report the suspicious, earthshaking wake up call.
Merrill Sambursky was one of those callers.
“I’ve been in a couple earthquakes out in California so when I felt the house shake I said wait you’re not supposed to get earthquakes here but who knows the way everything’s going lately you don’t know,” he said.
General speculation was that the noise came from some kind of military maneuver over the Gulf of Mexico. But officials at MacDill Air Force Base say it wasn't them.
Lt. Patrick Gargan, a spokesman for the 6th Air Mobility Wing at the base, said MacDill has had noise complaints but typically doesn't get calls about booms.
"At this time, we don't know anything about the reported loud noises this morning," he said. "If we hear anything, we'll let you know."
The air force base said they can’t confirm it was caused by a sonic boom.
Sambursky, a retired air force police officer said, “This one this morning was no sonic boom."

Mystery Booms in Michigan (May 8)
(Apparent nexus: Michigan water main break)
Massive booms were also heard on and off on Sunday, Yonkman said.
“It was like a huge sonic boom,” she said. “We thought they were blasting dynamite, but we didn't see any reports on it."
Although thunderstorms had been in the area, none were occurring at the time.
Osceola County Undersheriff Justin Halladay said his department received no calls about the noise.
A similar incident occurred in April 2013 in the Harrietta area.
That time, four different callers contacted central dispatch.
The South Branch Township and Harrietta fire departments searched for the source of the noise but were unable to identify a cause.
Because the noise was heard throughout the area, firefighters weren’t certain it originated in Slagle Township.

Two explosions, like two loud explosions were felt sharply this morning off the coast of Gallura. The roar that vibrated the windows of the houses were found between 9 and 9:30, at two separate times, and lasted between five and ten seconds. Their cause is still unknown. "I was having breakfast in a bar in Porto Cervo - said a trader - we heard the doors of the bar vibrate as if someone wanted to enter. After a few seconds, and 'heard a second rumble, although more' strange, more 'gloomy. Shortly after we called a friend who lives a couple of miles away who had heard what sounded like two explosions. " The explosions were felt in Golfo Aranci, La Maddalena and even Pertusato in Corsica. Even in the radar towers of the Coast Guard, particularly in La Maddalena, vibrations were felt as though it were an earthquake. But the equipment of the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology did not reveal anything, no shock. Discarded at the time, the hypothesis of exercises at sea - none have been reported - or phenomena of "sonic boom" associated with the passage of jet aircraft in transit at low altitude. The military airport of Decimomannu did not detect anything. The two explosions remain a mystery for the moment.

Unexplained Boom, Flashes of Light Near Great Lakes (May 28)
Residents in a radius as wide as Howard Crescent near the Headwaters Health Care Centre to College Avenue near Credit Meadows Elementary School reported hearing the unidentified noise at about 9:30 p.m.
“Although I did not see a “flash,” I did hear the very loud sound,” Brett D Hancock posted on Facebook from Murray Court. “And it was extremely loud.”
“By the hospital,” echoed Jada Doucette. “My big bully went ballistic. Even made my daughter and myself jump. It was so loud.”
According to Rob Koekkoek, engineer with Orangeville Hydro, the local utility has no evidence that one of its transformers blew last night. There is no evidence of any field issues either..
“There have been no related calls from our customers,” Koekkoek said in an email. “It appears the noise is not related to our equipment.”
Orangeville police Const. Scott Davis confirmed officers were called to investigate a report of a loud noise and flash of "white light" near Howard Crescent at 9:41 p.m. Responding officers, however, were unable to determine the cause or find any explanation for the apparent phenomena.
“We checked the area. We couldn’t come up with a source for the noise or the white light, and that was it,” Davis said. “That is the only report that we had.”
Jeff Renaud, senior media relations officer at the University of Western Ontario, has passed information about the reports onto scientists at the Centre for Planetary Science & Exploration, which has several highly advanced video surveillance systems set up across the province, including one in Orangeville.
As far as he knows, however, it is not something scientists are investigating right now.
If a meteor were to fall to the ground, Williams suggested the impact would register on seismic detectors. As he noted further, the United States Geological Survey isn’t reporting any significant seismic activity in this region.
So, what actually caused the loud boom, and a flash of light? It’s anybody’s guess at this point.

Mystery bangs and shaking in Auckland - NEW ZEALAND
Last updated 22:19 18/06/2014
http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/10174693/Mystery-bangs-and-shaking-...
18 JUNE 2014. A series of mysterious "explosions" have been reported across west and north Auckland, but police are mystified. Reports of loud ‘‘bangs’’ followed by houses shaking began about 5pm, in the Hibiscus Coast area. Inspector Tony Edwards of police northern communications said police received reports of the bangs from the Herald Island - Greenhithe area about the same time.
More reports came in a while later from the Ranui - Scenic Drive area in West Auckland. A Fire Service worker came in to work later and confirmed they had heard the noises in the Red Beach area, which is on the Hibiscus Coast. Edwards said people had variously described the noises as sounding like gun-shots and loud explosions. Police had checked with the Air Force, which has a base in Whenuapai, but turned out not to be not responsible, and neither was Paremoremo prison.
Lines companies had not reported any electrical disturbances and Geonet is not showing any tectonic activity in the Auckland area. Arkles Bay resident Will Trayes said he heard the noises about 4pm. His house shook with a "sudden, quick vibration" for two or three seconds and he heard a slight rumble similar to thunder. Six or seven minutes later it happened again and then again six or seven minutes after that.
His sister said she thought it was a truck going past the house, he said. ‘‘I wasn't worried, I was just wondering if there was going to be a bigger shake." A local Facebook page was inundated with 450 comments after Kelly de Rooy posted: "Holy hell, was that an earthquake I just felt in Stanmore Bay? My entire house just shook".
Sally Louise Dodsworth wrote: ‘‘3 big shakes here in Stillwater’’ while Deborah Johnston said: ‘‘We heard real weird noise too and the cupboards were vibrating in Red Beach.’’ Kathryn Wales wrote: ‘‘Can anyone see Rangitoto???? THat's not blowing up is it???’’ The noises remain a mystery. Continue...

Jul 7, 2014What is the source of the strange sounds in the sky over Plymouth (UK)?
Plymouth residents are struggling to cope with ‘the hum’ – whatever it may be – and want to source its origins.
People hearing it say they suffer and the high-pitched noise has increased in intensity!
Strange sounds baffle and annoy residents of Plymouth (UK). Photo: Bugbog.com
The Plymouth hum seems almost electrical in nature and to reverberate around the walls houses. However, the Council’s Environmental Protection Department was not able to detect anything. AND the noise did not abate.
It seems a particular business on an industrial estate has moved its cooling towers to an area near the front of their building, approximately 400 metres away. But I doubt it could be related to the rumbling sounds.
Other people in Plympton (5.5 miles away) also started hearing the weird metallic noise about five or six weeks ago, but the source is also unknown. Could it be related to the nearby power station?

Mystery Booms Rattle Lima? A series of loud sounds alarmed citizens of Lima on August 4 2014. But what was their origin?
Suddenly, social media were flooded by reports of loud explosion noises heard in different districts of the vast city of Lima (El Augustino, San Borja, Rimac, La Molina, Surco, Surquillo, Lima Center, San Juan de Lurigancho, Brena, Jesus Maria, Miraflores). Sound of thunder? Dynamite explosions?
Officials believe the loud and mysterious detonations felt strongly in several districts of metropolitan Lima were the results of fireworks taking place at the Cerro San Cristobal.

Underground Strike worries Hacienda Gardens neighbors (city neighorhood)
BY LUIS MONTES DE OCA
Noticias de Querétaro
Friday, August 22, 2014
15:20 (CDT)
An underground hit, with consequent shaking doors and windows has been recorded in the Hacienda Gardens neighborhood for about four months, however it has increased in frequency and even heard by dawn.
The clarion call of the neighbors is the sense of concern for not knowing the origin of the "coup" and especially because in this neighborhood runs the San Andreas fault line and the results are visible in an adjoining subdivision to the highway.
In interviews conducted by Noticias neighbors agree that the noise is heard on the ground, it's like something ran underground and then hit, and then an increased frequency and intensity of the blow, which makes windows and doors vibrate.
They also agree that the blow may be from some machinery or work being performed, but the journeys made by this House Editorial, left no evidence of a great work in the vicinity of the neighborhood. Also, on adjacent neighborhoods the phenomenon has not being noticed.
There are versions that people working on the expanding of the St. Joseph Medical Tower nearby, ran out because of the vibration felt in the building, however Noticias could not confirm this.
It is also noted that some argue that when it stops raining the beating stops, which is not verifiable, since last Monday's rain, the heaviest rain of the last few years, the blow was felt, per neighbor's reports, between 05:30 and 06:00 am (CET), as they prepared to take their children to school.
Finally respondents indicated that the biggest concern is not knowing where the noise is coming from and know if there is danger or not.

Mysterious Booms Rattle Georgia Residents (Sept 6)
A series of booms also occurred about four weeks ago, said Lisa Sierra.
“Several of my neighbors as well as myself who live in the Trammell Road area have heard and experienced these noises,” Sierra said. She said she and her children were watching a movie Saturday when it happened.
“It was so loud that it shook our bedroom wall,” she said. “I ran outside to see what it could be but noticed nothing.”
Another boom followed about 20 minutes later, but the second one on Saturday was not as loud.
As for the boom last month, “My neighbor said that it shook her house. My son said everything shook and rattled,” she said.
The Coweta County Fire Department was dispatched at 9:57 Saturday to the area of Hwy. 54 and Cecil Hunter Road, regarding a possible explosion, said Assistant Chief Mitch Coggin.
“Units arrived in the area and could not locate anything,” Coggin said. “Our units searched the surrounding roads and still did not locate” the source of the loud noise.

Loud Boom in ArkLaTex a Mystery (Oct 13)
"My couch came up off the floor a little bit, my back wall felt like it was going to cave in, it was so loud!" says Linda Stewart, who lives off of Shirley Francis Rd. in Greenwood.
The reverberation was heard and felt by staffers at KSLA News 12 at the studios on Fairfield Ave. in Shreveport's Highland neighborhood at 4:27 p.m. The concussion rattled windows. Meteorologist Jeff Castle says the closest incidence of possible thunder at that time was in Monroe, to the east in Ouachita Parish.
Some reports say it shook the ground.
KSLA News 12 has checked in with numerous law enforcement agencies and across the area and we continue to work to track down the source.
In spite of numerous reports, officials at Calumet in Shreveport and in Cotton Valley say there have been no explosions or incidents at either facility. Reports by other media organizations in the area that there was an explosion at Calumet are unsubstantiated, based on confirmation with the Shreveport Fire Department that there have been no calls whatsoever to the plant in Shreveport on this date.
Webster Parish Sheriff Gary Sexton says there have been no reports of anything amiss at Camp Minden, where explosives are stored in blast-resistant bunkers.
Several fire units have been at the scene of an oil tank fire believed to have been caused by lightning earlier in the day, but the Caddo Parish Sheriff's Office says there have been no explosions as a result of that incident.
Some reports describe the sound and accompanying vibration as a "sonic boom."
A spokesperson for Barksdale Air Force Base says it was not related to any activity on the base.

"Series of Sonic Booms" Rocks South Jersey Shore Town (Oct 29)
Residents around Lower Township, New Jersey have turned to social media to confirm they were not alone in feeling the ground rumble repeatedly Wednesday afternoon.
“It seemed like the room moved. It’s didn’t shake, it didn’t twitch or anything, it just actually seemed like it moved,” Jo Ann Armstrong said.
It was a shakeup Jo Ann Armstrong just couldn’t figure out.
And she wasn’t alone.
In cities up and down the shore, people reported feeling the ground move or hearing a loud boom.
“I felt like a big, almost like a vibration, and then I heard what sounded like a truck overturning or something,” Jacquelyn Songalewski said.
It lasted just seconds but people jumped on social media hoping to figure it all out. Some didn’t know what to think, others thought possibly it was even an earthquake.
There were no reports of any earthquakes in the area by the U.S. Geological Survey.
Armstrong was relieved her friends experienced that same thing. For a moment she thought she was alone.
“Bizarre. Very bizarre,” she said.
