Remarks |
I live in Paulden,AZ(3yrs). Its half way between Prescott & Ash Fork. I only heard the Sonic Boom. I moved from rural Wickenburg, 18mi W of Town. I lived there for 18yrs and,heard numerous,prob few dozen Sonic Booms (S.B). Caused by fighter jets(Luke A.F.B). But, this S.B. was much different. In the fact of the length of travel& length of audio of it. I heard it come rolling in from the S.West, to the N.East. The actual boom, was heard slightly before my home. (1mi NW from Family Dollar of Hwy 89).then a softer rolling sound continued NE >towards Flagstaff not Ash Fork. S.B.s created by Jets,always been quick and,sudden.Apprx 2-3 seconds. The much slower incoming rolling sound, noticeably different. The S.B.s total length of sound I heard, no doubt last 7-8 seconds. Its the most memorable. I read a local news ch. report. Where a local resident- Mr.Ward, id seeking additional info from witnesses. I thought perhaps my detailed audio info may help? Many early reports noted, meteor fell S.W. of Ash Fork. Knowing what I heard, made no sense? It 100% traveled S.W.(Prescott) of Paulden. Towards the N.E.- Flagstaff. Or N.W area, of furthest N.W area of Sedona. Hope it helps. I now have learned meteors create Sonic Booms. |
