I've seen meteor showers and other events but for some reason this one looked different which lead me to look up possible explanations which landed me here. Hope it helps.

I heard a weird off in the distance boom sound that I brushed off as maybe garbage trucks starting their pick up a few streets down shortly after I saw what I thought was a shooting star.
