As forecasted? Great work, as always, Bending Light! I look forward to your threads and posts more than any others because you do NOT fear monger, you don't give a timeframe as to when the New Madrid will actually "go", and your information is presented in an intelligent and organized way without being too "highbrow". So, once again, KUDOS to you! However, for what it's worth, when we first moved to the Lakes Region of Maine (we're now in Colorado, btw), I was startled many times by very loud booms that WERE caused by ice on a "pond". (The reason for the quotation marks is because ponds in Maine can be VERY large, as the difference between ponds and lakes -- at least in Maine, I was told -- is depth, not area. Moose Pond, about a mile from where we lived, had a surface area of about 12 square miles.) Anyway, my point is that if I had been monitoring GLP back then (several years ago), and there was a similar thread to this one, I would have thought "EARTHQUAKE BOOM!!" and reported it. However, I can't remember now if there was any accompanying shaking, but those booms were LOUD!!! I do remember thinking that there must have been some horrific explosion close by. So just be on guard that some of the reports you receive MIGHT actually be ice-related! |

And why is this one of the first times this has been widely reported across southern Ontario when we are no stranger to the ups and downs of temperatures?" [link to globalnews.ca] They used this ICE excuse for Indiana as well which they say might be an "Front quake" from ice causing booms and people dishes rattling lol [link to www.nbcnews.com] they said it happened Thursday the 19th when the high temp was 52 degrees and the low 32! [link to www.weather.com] Rhode island, Vermont, Illinois and across 200 miles of Canada all boomed and shook the same day supposedly from ice. |

As forecasted? Okay, BL, you started to make me believe I was delusional, so I did some checking to see if anyone else DID hear what I heard. I found the following on Yahoo Answers that described what I heard, as well, and someone replied with an answer. Here it is: "Why does the ice on a frozen lake make loud thunderlike sounds?" richardson418 asked 6 years ago Best Answer (Voter's Choice) Mike1942f answered 6 years ago "Ice expands and contracts with changes in temperature, as do most materials. The amount it can change is moderated by the mass of water underneath, but almost nothing is as big as a sheet of ice - pavement being closest, but it is sliced so that seams exist to open with cold and close with heat. The ice gets under great strain and then a crack starts and fires across hundreds of yards or even miles of ice. Depending on where you are listening with respect to the crack, the sound varies from a sharp "crack" to an intense rumble. Normally, water flows in the crack and freezes quickly. "In the northern USA, ice commonly gets 1-2 feet thick and cars can be driven on the surface. Further north, where it is even thicker, roads are plowed and maintained and heavy trucks make deliveries avoiding the mess when the tundra defrosts." However, what I heard, as I recall, DID sound more like a cannon boom than thunder, but as it was several years ago, I could be wrong! (And I think it's also possible that atmospheric conditions might have made the sound seem louder and carry further than it normally would have.) P.S. I am definitely NOT trying to start an argument with you or anyone else! I was just sharing my experience. |

As forecasted? I thought the first one was a gun shot, which is reasonably common out here with the low population density and high varmint count. The second report was Big though. It shuddered the casita a little. I ran outside thinking it might have been a meteor, but didn't see any lingering light trails. A few people heard it as well, but no one was outside to have seen something associated with the sounds. just adding to the count... We know more than we know and understand less than we think. |
