Anyone hear or feel that at 9am? Heard a loud boom and my house shook. People reporting it from Sandusky to Madison. Edit-Meteor I guess they are saying |

| It was definitely not the normal tannerite "boom" heard frequently around here. It had a long rumbling sound following the initial blast in Central Ashtabula Co. I tought it might be an earthquake, but if you hear it, you can usually feel it in this area. |

We heard and felt it in the near west suburbs. Cool stuff! We were in different parts of the house and my wife was yelling to see if I was okay. She thought it was something that I did. I have no idea why that was her first thought.  |

I heard that long, rumble too. Usually, when we hear an earthquake out here, you also feel it. |
