>>An apparently unexplained booming sound heard over Vancouver early
Friday:<<

>From what I read, it could be meteor caused. It kinda reminds me of the
San Diego area over the years that I lived there. There would be reports of
loud sonic booms about every two or three years. Military aircraft would
often get the blame, but they were denied by the military. Besides the usual
meteor speculation, one idea seemed to stand out. It was the training firing
of military big guns on naval vessels far out to sea. We are talking about
a hundred or two hundred miles out. Sound carries far over water. I'm
often amazed hearing people talk normally on the shore, while in the middle of
a big lake fishing.
