The New Jersey State Police posted on their Twitter account that they are not reporting any seismic blasts in the state. They are investigating as well.

An Official at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst told News12NJ that “the base was not conducting any sort of exercises that would have caused a sonic boom or other shaking.”

New Jersey State Police said it was looking into the reports, but said it had no immediate reports that seismic blasts were being carried out. McGuire Air Force base, meanwhile, said they have not carried out any drills or military exercises, though some witnesses reported seeing two large aircraft in the area.

This all has me so intrigued, I'm not even working lol.

:mattwtf:

Julie Dutton, geophysicist with US Geological Survey, said shortly before 3 p.m. that based on waveforms seen Thursday, officials don’t believe the incidents to have been from an earthquake — but they couldn’t be sure.

The USGS picked up waveforms throughout the New Jersey area. Dutton speculated the incidents could have been sonic booms from military aircraft, but had no confirmation. She expected to have a better idea of what caused the shaking by 4 p.m.

A spokesperson for Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst said no operations that would cause such a boom were taking place.

Ocean County Sheriff Mike Mastronadry said he’d been told the same, and was still trying to determine what caused the shakes.

State Police told New Jersey 101.5 around 2:30 that they were still investigating the incident.

A caller to the New Jersey 101.5 newsroom who identified herself as Kim, and said she lives in Toms River, said “My entire house shook. Everything shook.”


Diane in Barnegat, who called the Deminski & Doyle show Thursday, said she’d felt shakes six times, starting at 1:25 p.m. “I thought it was a bad wind storm but there were no trees rustling. Then the glasses on the shelves started to shake,” she said. They got stronger with each shake, she said.


“Felt the shake 5 times between 2:19 and 2:36 (in Berlin),” Steve Czarkowski wrote.


Garvin in Whiting, who lives in a trailer near the Berkeley Township line, said he was home when the earth shook: “It felt like a big truck going by. Boom! Boom! Boom!”


Sue Moll, morning show host for WOBM, said at 2:20 that she’d felt Bayville shake three times.

FISHY

Yup. Sonic booms over the ocean don't hit cars and buildings.

LOL, that kitten is adorable!

Coming late to the party, but did any of you hear/feel it? My Twitter is jumping with reports, but I'm in Georgia so I missed the excitement.

Quoting from the other thread

"People reporting a flash a while ago here in Michigan. Was no lightning on the lightning detector. Something is going on."

UPDATE, 3:30: A public affairs official at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst said no aircraft at the base was capable of making the seeming sonic booms felt throughout New Jersey Thursday, and officials were still investigating.

People in Jersey are reporting streets cracking and tree limbs falling.

Sounds like an earthquake boom.

I have confirm that the airbase doesn't even house craft that are capable of producing a sonic boom.

Now the question is what's going on that USGS wants covered up?

I read an article the other day that said the shoreline on the east coast was literally falling into the sea. Need to see if I can find that again.
