Default Anyone hear a sonic boom?

Lots of talk over on Florida subreddit. Around last midnight, apparently from a Falcon rocket.

It was the booster coming back. This was the furthest reported distance where it was heard as of this morning.

Definitely from the Falcon Stage 1 rocket returning to Kennedy Space Center (instead of landing out at sea on a drone ship, which is the normal method of retrieval). Watched it on my “Next Space Flight” app. Sonic boom was huge.
