| Remarks | It was like I was standing an inch away from the biggest firework possible being let off, it then continued but was decreasing in sound. This sounded like thunder off in the distance for about 15 seconds. It was so loud, my house shook, I felt it in my chest and had me stand still for a moment in panic. I got ready to load my children up with our emergency bags because I thought the power plant 12 miles away from me blew up. |
