14holestogie · 03-21-2012, 10:01 AM

Yes....yes I do.

Mysterious booms? Sounds like Todd had a burrito for dinner last night.

It's 2012. The Mayans predicted this sh!t. Don't you read the news? I'm heading to my bunker.

14holestogie · 03-21-2012, 10:09 AM

We don't get many Mayans up this way....

Three nights in a row, always starting around 8 PM and usually ending in the wee hours of the morning. Only affecting a small bit of the city, but there's a lot of folks in that part of the city on edge. Some people hear and feel it, others, in essentially the same area, don't. Weird.

Is it really that loud there?
How often are these noises occurring?

EDIT: I just read your post

I wonder what it is?
something will eventually give....

Some people equate it to the rumblings of a strong thunderstorm, others say it's enough to wake you out of a sound sleep, still another at work here said he thought his house had been hit by a bulldozer. All the experts and investigating going on, and nobody has a clue what the fArk is going on.

It's pretty interesting to say the least. They talked about using a sound machine to pinpoint where it was coming from. I'm pretty curious as to what will be found. Eventually a cause should be found.

What time do the street lamps turn on? (Do you guys even have street lamps in clintonville?

)
It makes me think that there is some automatic system kicking on and something is terribly wrong with it.

Stay safe.

The city has pretty much checked and rechecked every plausible possibility.
There having a town meeting tonight at the high school to take questions, but as of now, they have no answers.

14holestogie · 03-21-2012, 10:37 AM

Me, I'm going golfing this afternoon, just in case it's a giant sinkhole forming. I'll get my hole in one one way or another.

Dave128 · 03-21-2012, 11:18 AM

Sounds interesting. Are there any companies doing (have done) drilling/mining or fracking that could be disturbing the bed rock?

icehog3 · 03-21-2012, 11:29 AM

Rook!! It's Garzirra!!!

14holestogie · 03-21-2012, 11:33 AM

No, nothing like that happening around here. It is interesting to note we do have something of a "bottomless" lake on the southwest side of town. I remember when they moved the highway some years back, they had a tough time filling a portion of it that was close to where the new highway went through. (of course, all the reports are on the Northeast side of town, but seem to be spreading back towards the center)
We've had sinkholes in town before, but nothing of the size we're talking could be possible in this situation with the dispersion of the reporting calls if that is indeed what it turns out to be. We're talking a 1/4 mile radius or more.
