Two very weird phenomena stories out of the Florida beginning on March 9 when residents in Flagler County located on the east coast of Florida reported a loud noise–’very strange sounds’ that lasted ‘up to 20 minutes’. [Video, which is pretty amazing, below].

Nine days later, one day before the Super Moon, scared Floridians near Tallahassee, located over 200 hundred miles to the northwest of Flagler County, reported the ground and buildings shaking.

The explanation for the extremely loud noise in Flagler County from the National Weather Service:

THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL REPORTS OF VERY STRANGE SOUNDS FROM THE WOODVILLE AREA SINCE ABOUT 645 PM EST. THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BELIEVES THIS PHENOMENON IS BEING CAUSED BY THUNDER FROM DISTANT LIGHTNING STROKES… BOUNCING OFF A VERY STABLE LAYER ABOVE THE GROUND. THIS IS CALLED DUCTING…AND CAN ALLOW SOUND TO TRAVEL UNUSUALLY LONG DISTANCES. THIS SOUND HAS BEEN MISTAKENLY ATTRIBUTED TO POSSIBLE TORNADOES…BUT WE AT THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WANT TO BE VERY CLEAR THAT THERE ARE NO TORNADOES … AND NONE ARE EXPECTED.

Playing the role of skeptics we wondered, if ‘ducting’ is the explanation, why did the extremely loud noise continue, unabated, for ‘up to 20 minutes’?

One answer, that must have been a hell of a thunderstorm or storms with lighting leading to continuous thunder which traveled a long distance, the thunder sounds, non-stop for ‘up to 20 minutes’. The sound of thunder, misinterpreted as a possible tornado. Missing from the news report and the report from the Weather Service, the report of an actual tornado whose ‘sound’ might have been ‘ducting’ from a long distance.

The ducting theory doesn’t seem explain the witnesses’ claim the ‘whole house and ground was shaking’. In the second bizarre Florida story, the report of the ground shaking and reports of a ‘loud rumble’ on March 18-The Weather Service demurred from weighing in on the cause of the loud sounds while the USGS reported the ‘bizarre’ shaking wasn’t due to an earthquake.
