"My wife and I began to hear strange booming sounds outside" - San Antonio

4/14/2014

11 Comments

 
  • When: April 13th, 2014
  • Where: San Antonio
  • What: Loud booming sounds with a pattern (fireworks or something unexplained?)

Many residents of San Antonio were startled by dull, repetitive booming sounds on the night of April 13th. Strange and disturbing sounds have been emanating from the Earth in destinations all over the world for a few years now, and Texans have heard them, too. Could this be related? Probably not (read on)...

Here's the account from a forum member on Godlikeproductions.com:
I live on the northeast side of San Antonio. About 30 minutes ago, while watching Game of Thrones, my wife and I began to hear strange booming sounds outside. We walked out the front door and saw our next door neighbors in their yard. They said, "It's not us." It wasn't because the sounds were coming from the opposite direction.

The booms sound like a dull heartbeat, but are loud enough to be heard (and felt) indoors.
The reason I say "heartbeat" is because there is a slap-back effect to them, almost as the each boom has two parts.

The sounds occur every 5 to 10 seconds, with short bursts of activity where multiple booms happen in rapid succession. Then they calm down to the previous rate.

There are no fireworks going off, no real logical explanation for this phenomenon.

Does anyone else in San Antonio hear these mysterious booms?
While this was no doubt an eerie experience for this couple, it appear we might have a reasonable explanation: fireworks. Although the witnesses didn't see fireworks (and they looked for them), all month long there are parades and celebratory events going on in San Antonio as part of the annual Fiesta San Antonio.

Here are some other thoughts on the matter:
"Just heard a lot of loud booms in San Antonio. 4/13/14 wondering if anyone else heard these"
-Comment by TUS reader (Xena)

"That's FT SAM Army Base..firing their canon..to help open Fiesta..the 18 day drunk. I hate when they do that, and it wasn't all fireworks, looked like dummy rounds to me. Strait heart attack, everytime they do it. Thought this time was a military exercise going on over there."
-Comment on Godlikeproductions.com thread

"Heard them too. Live too far to hear fiesta firewoorks very strange. All the neighbors were outside as well."
-Comment on Godlikeproductions.com thread

However, with the Earth shifting and the strange sounds heard around the world, it's always worth reporting on events like these. If you've been hearing odd booming noises in San Antonio that can't be explained by fireworks, report it!

At around 3:20 this morning was woken by a loud sound like a crash. My daughter says it shook the house. Went outside to investigate and found nothing. We live adjacent to Bamberg park. It reminded her of the bombings we felt when the military had artillery exercises at Fort Bragg.

Last Night, my family and I heard a bunch of heartbeat booms coming from the direction from what we thought was Fiesta Texas. Last night was Wednesday January 27, 2016. I was wondering if any one else on the Northeast side heard them as well.

Im on the NE side of SA too. I live near the Windcrest area and for many years now time now (maybe since 2012 or a few years earlier) I’ve been hearing loud booms come from what sounds like loud “booms” like a fast shotgun or firework noise.

But every time I do hear it, it only happens once and is always late at night like between maybe 8-11 or so. I’m always inside my house when it occurs and every time it comes from somewhere near the outside of my room. There is a glass window right in the spot in my room, so I can I hear it quite well.

I know I’m not crazy too because I’ve heard it coming from my living room too which is perpindicullarly across from my room, and so did my parents, since we were all in the living room watching a movie when we first heard it go off. I’ve checked to see what it could be by looking outside after it happens but don’t find anything or don’t know what could be causing it and even my neighbor acroos my fence came outside and asked about it.

It happens quite randomly and it’s pretty rare when it does occur. I haven’t heard it for months or maybe even close to a year now, until actually yesterday when it happened again lol.

I find it funny all the people coming out and saying they are hearing this sound on the NE side of SA, except that the sound doesn’t repeat in the same instance for me like everyone else is saying. I think I’m going to have someone come out and look into what might be causing this because it pretty scary when it does. I’ll be notifying news outlets and posting this on public forums online too if possible to inform others.

God Bless you all!

Couldn’t edit my previous message but meant to say the noises can always be heard anytime you are near that vicinity. Whether you are in the living room or in my room. But it always occurs in what sounds like the same spot outside my room near the sliding window.

Just went outside tonight and my whole family went outside and heard a loud heart beat rythum sound with a hint of light in the sky but can't see the source. It accured about 5-10 seconds apart. Just how the top comment described it. I live just North of Portland, Oregon.

Yep, I just heard them too. Exactly like a distant fireworks show. For several minutes I heard about 1 boom every 5 seconds or so. I stepped outside to investigate and then started what sounded like a finale, like 40 booms in the period of 10 seconds, then silence.

Just heard those same noises. I live I schertz across from Clemens. Same pattern short bursts of booming like fireworks or gun fire. Very strange. We've lived here for almost 3 years, first time I've heard it.

Yes I've heard the booming noises also. Don't think its a UFO though. Since there are military bases here. I'm willing to bet that they are testing or maintaining some sort of weapon. It's a bit nerve wrecking though. Noticed that the police wont respond during the time its happening.

Wednesday, February 5, 2020 10am northeast of San Antonio, booms were heard. Low frequency booms like heartbeats. The neighbors for miles around, on the “ nextdoor” app all heard them. My sister 3 miles away, heard them. They lasted about 3 minutes, ended and started up again an hour or so later. One town even sent out the fire department to find them, with no luck. Really strange.
