massive sound that shook the house My wife was woken up to the house shaking. My daughter is also a witness. No sightings, but a massive low frequency, slow cycling(2-3 second intevals), rumbling sound that covered several miles and lasted 20 minutes. Similar to an eormous engine, like a locomotive starting up, but much larger. On the scale of an earthquake or tornado that sounds like a train coming into you house. Came from west of Beachwood,Ohio. (There are no trains located near this area and I have lived here for 51 years and never heard anything like this).There was some activity 2-3 miles away with a helicopter circling in the same spot for the 20 minutes I watched. Police departments had other complaints, but no answers. A neighbor that lives about a mile closer said that she also heard it, and that there were several helicopters circling the area. My wife's students live in that area and stated the same.

massive sound that shook the house

My wife was woken up to the house shaking. My daughter is also a witness.

No sightings, but a massive low frequency, slow cycling(2-3 second intevals), rumbling sound that covered several miles and lasted 20 minutes. Similar to an eormous engine, like a locomotive starting up, but much larger. On the scale of an earthquake or tornado that sounds like a train coming into you house. Came from west of Beachwood,Ohio. (There are no trains located near this area and I have lived here for 51 years and never heard anything like this).There was some activity 2-3 miles away with a helicopter circling in the same spot for the 20 minutes I watched. Police departments had other complaints, but no answers.

A neighbor that lives about a mile closer said that she also heard it, and that there were several helicopters circling the area.

My wife's students live in that area and stated the same.
