| Remarks | Very loud sonic boom about one minute after seeing the green flash. (I had gone to the window to see if there was a transformer explosion to account for the green light and stood there a while before the sonic boom.) Then a loud rumbling. At first I thought a boulder had dropped on the house (meteorite?) and that it rolled down the roof of our A-frame...The sound, including the following rumbling, shook the house. It was quite loud. |
