Default Explosions this morning

Are they bombing in Pine Castle this morning or are the explosions coming from somewhere else? Within the last 15 minutes, rattling the windows.

Pine Castle is the military bombing range in Ocala National Forest. They schedule the bombings there but have not seen a schedule for this week.

It shook our house. Wonder what it was. We live in Amelia and it sounded like it was an explosion around Leesburg.

Bombing can't be a good thing when the ground is so fragile and we are susceptible to sink holes.

I thought that I was the only one who had heard it. Had asked neighbors here in Bonita no one heard a thing. Thought that I was dreaming. They must be using the "Big One".

Default Heard it

Heard it very loud at Bonifay this morning. No idea what it was but I do believe people are entitled to their opinions
