Huge bang / boom heard over St Albert

[hakx]

Anybody else have their home rocked by what seems like a couple explosions or sonic booms around 11pm Saturday night. My google-fu reveals nothing. A few of my neighbours and I met on the street scratching their heads, too.

Might have been Oilers fans smashing there TVs when the Flames scored the 4th goal? JK. Hopefully nothing serious.

Same thing happened in Calgary last year. It sounded almost like a huge steel dumpster was dropped from 10'. Officials pegged it as a frost crack in a school yard some 12 km. away.

Probably the police helicoptor chaseing someone in a smart car.

[expmler]

Probably fracking, gmo, or climate change.

Is anybody missing? Abduction perhaps?.....UFO sighting? Did somebody see tall green people?

In the immortal words of Brewster Rooster...."Shhhh, it's getting closer!" :sHa_shakeshout:

Not in St. Albert but over on the east end everything Alberta Steel crushes a pressure vessel things shake here.

Maybe some speedy military jet exersizes at Namao.

My wife lit the BBQ with the lid down again. Sorry 'bout that.

[colroggal]

Any new high tension power lines going up in the area? When they fuse the lines the crack can be heard and felt for miles. Wouldn't think they'd be doing it that late but maybe they're behind schedule.

I suspect too much Sour Kraut and Beans at the local ethnic deli.

No. Slow moving helos no noiser than doo wop. Jets? Namao.........the runways are closed man, ever since the air force left in 93. Just a helipad now. CYED once the longest rwy in Canada........now a helipad

Come to think of it, wasn't it also a backup shuttle landing strip at one time?

yes

[HalfBreed]

Until they built all the unit lines at one end, but the shuttle program was winding down at that point, and Hilary Swank showed how to do secondary landings in 'The Core'. :sHa_shakeshout:
