Remarks The first boom was really loud, sounded like the fridge was knocked over and fell through the floor, a few seconds after there was another boom that was not as loud that sounded like a person jumped off the couch and hit the floor pretty hard. There was shaking in between and for a second or 2 after the second boomb. Thoug it was an earthquake or that a tree fell on the house. Checked the house out and everythiong was fine as far I I can tell.
