depending on where the accident took place it could take a while to get there in the mountains thus no more info yet.

WOW... just remembered my sons BFF is a full time fireman in Augusta County... will message him for insider info.

Not in that area... it's a cattle farm. There is good access if the news says otherwise they are full of caca.

What could this be?

Me too!

How did you know I was a woman...LOL is this my husband???

"You heard and felt it farther than Deerfield. I live in Swoope on Little North mtn and I thought we were having an earthquake. My parents on the next property thought there was a bomb going off. It knocked my stuff hanging off the walls."
....via fb newsfeed



Is it possible it was armed???

WOW looks like I'm not the only GLP'r in the valley :) Not surprised a good place to bug out.

LOL because you were talking about your husband being in Staunton :)

True.... although in today's world that term is so interchangeable :)

OP I remember having a convo with you talking about jets overflying....awe hell mebe 2 years ago........on your post

104th Fighter Wing of the Massachusetts Air National Guard.

Guard spokesman Maj. Matthew Mutti says the jet was on a standard training exercise Wednesday with no munition onboard. He didn't say where it was headed or release the pilot's name.

Augusta County dispatcher Becky Coynter says witnesses reported an explosion-like noise just before 9 a.m. She says military officials in Washington reporting losing communication with a jet.

Yup we have them here all the time... They love to buzz our barn.

This is true lol

Quick blurb on our local news... personnel not being allowed near scene.

Havent seen any jets lately but I did see ospreys heading in that direction.

Scanners talking about 3 helicopters needing ground radios. Must still be searching for pilot.

2 state police and one US customs helicopters

Witness heard two booms

Woman on ground reporting 2 explosions... one sounded like a propane tank exploding in distance then one closer after she saw smoke on ground.

Woman's location was "Mountain View"
