We've had strange booms that were called frost quakes. I've even seen where concrete curbing has been shattered when saturated with water that freezes.
All night long, constant steady roar of wind over 30 mph but were gusts up to 50 mph. Constant roaring now for almost 12 hours. What are the booms?! Regular boom sounds. Like muffled sonic booms you can hear from a jet overheat, or distant fireworks. My electric is on, so not exploding transformers, I hope. I wonder if it's lightning due to static charges from the dry high winds, but muffled by the winds? Just saw Owings Mills is now at ZERO degrees. I'll be skipping church today. There's 3-4 inches of caked up, wet then frozen snow on everything. Wind chill is in the minus degrees, so not cleaing the van till at least the winds die down. The eerie sound of the wind all night long has been amazing. Almost like having a hurricane go by, but for a longer time.
