Thread: Strange Booms or Explosion noises SW Michigan? Anyone else?


any sounds?

Hey AC reporting in here as this seems similar to something I witnessed about a week ago in Missouri. Luckily we are in a flight-path the military uses and I was able to make out that the strange lights were C-130s dropping flares. At first I totally thought it was a jet breaking up or maybe even a meteor or something, it was pretty amazing to see that and I don't think I could say I've ever seen a night-time mass flare drop like that before... alas though twas a military exercise. Is it possible this is what you saw? From a distance it looks a lot like two fireballs as the plane ejects them in huge several hundred foot arcs off to it's sides.

Lyrids Meteor Shower
Active from April 16th to 25th 2014
The Lyrids are a medium strength shower that usually produces good rates for three nights centered on the maximum. These meteors also usually lack persistent trains but can produce fireballs. These meteors are best seen from the northern hemisphere where the radiant is high in the sky at dawn. Activity from this shower can be seen from the southern hemisphere, but at a lower rate.
