strange noises in wisconsin

Being a vet of some really large quakes, and living my whole life in/on an active faultline, I am having serious trouble believing the 1.5 mag quake is making the noise.

I don't know what it is...but I don't think it's the quake.

However, we've had so many really huge quakes in the last 4-6 years, that I wouldn't discount the earth's crust settling from that. My difficulty in believing that wholeheartedly is that the noises sound too rhythmic and too machine like, generally, for that to be the case.

Of course, I also don't know what the earth's crust settling down might sound like, either.

I don't know. It might be Yellowstone waking up at that.

Could the noise be so loud that its is making the earth shake and feel like a quake? or trigger the meters like a quake does? I thought it was really weird and ive been hearing about loud noises all over the world. Im telling yall some of the strangest things have been occuring in the last say 5 or 10 years that make me think about my old sunday school days.....

Well, if you want to hear about it,here's my theory: Mother Earth is not just angry, she's enraged.
Think about it. Everything that comes from the Earth is alive, in one way or another. Plants respond to calm voices and music. Animals are quite aware of the world around them. And then, of course, we have humans. I find it very hard to believe that there is no greater consciousness underlying the conscious, living things that the Earth provides us. In other words, I believe that the planet itself is alive and is conscious of us and our activities.

I think that a long time ago, we were nothing but a pesky parasite. We lived in little tiny groups, we didn't travel much, and we lit an occasional fire or cut down a tree every once in a while, not too much of a big deal. Now? I think we are now a life threatening parasite to the Earth. And as any conscious organism, the Earth is fighting back against the thing that is threatening it.

That said, I don't think I have much insight on the booming itself. I will say that I do not believe that the micro-earthquakes explain the sounds, but, it's the official explanation, so it's all we're going to get.

Interesting post and it made me think about just how little we know about the world despite all of our advances. It hasnt been that long ago that we discovered the Aspen trees are all apart of the same plant, all over the country those pretty trees they say " Quake" in the wind are all just one big connected living being. I was amazed when I read about it. and yes I agree we are doing harm to our world with all these technology and advances, plastic is a good example..

Regarding the strange noises aural type noises--

I'm wondering about our state of connectivity these days. Between HAARP, Satellites, and Cell Phone Towers, I wonder if certain frequencies are being "broadcast" out-- kind of like the interference you'd hear in a microphone/radio squelch? Like something bleeds through then is bounced around from one "receiver" to another... :waitasec:

I know that earthquakes cause sounds, and that sound travels at different rates of speed through the earth's surface (depending on what the geography is, etc.), but without exception, the folks recording the weird noises in January pointed their cams to the skies... Not an earth movement. However, earthquake light theories may have some bearing here, I found this little, plain spoken, article about that phenomena-- here's the gist of that potential link:

Quote: ...Freund's mechanism for turning rock stress into distant light and electrical activity extends to earthquake phenomena. A cloud of p-holes, released at depth from seismic stress, can erupt from the ground as a solid-state plasma, causing effects that include earthquake lights, infrared emissions detected from space, radio noise, large-scale disturbances in the upper atmosphere, and even animal behavior and human premonitions.
http://geology.about.com/od/earthquakes/a/EQlights.htm

Now what's happening at Clintonville, now that I know there's ancient volcanic systems in the region, it makes sense that there could be some magma chambers lurching to life. Folks would not necessarily feel an "earthquake", but the sound wouldn't have far to travel.


As for good old Yellowstone, I've kept my eye on that monster for decades, and it is stirring. What will become of its current activities is anyone's guess, but it's a live region, I don't expect anything dormant about it. It's dangerous, active, and unpredictable. Could happen this year, might not happen for another thousand, or even 50,000. I don't grok geologic eons... too vast for my caution tape to surround. But, those are interesting facts about Lake Mary-- I'm curious about those vibrations, and I'll be watching. :)

I also believe in the poles, not only moving, but shifting (as in a fairly rapid switching of global positions). I suspect these enormous earthquakes of the past five years or so (starting with the Sumatra quake/tidal wave) are indicative of these larger earth movements.

Sun spots, auroras, and the Mayans... heck, just throw them all in the mix! I think we're living in some very interesting times... Will we survive? I suspect so. :seeya:

Quiche, big thanks for that link.

Very cool NOVA to spend some time watching. Easily understood science, no fear-mongering, no gloom and doom...explains what is a magnetic shift, and how it's been "discovered" and "tracked" over time.

I will admit getting a tad bored, as most NOVA programs do to me. So I will add this comment: I skipped from about 15 minutes in (good background info there, though) to about minute 38ish, and finished from there. The info - what's happening and why - is in the last 20 minutes, and is definitely worth the viewing.

So, I've spent some time watching and listening to vids and recordings of the noises heard around the world.

Here is what I've noted:
No Pattern Whatsoever. LOL.

I've looked at backgrounds, time of day, location, technological structure of the area (e.g military base, airport, train station, et cetera). I've listened for other sounds, like birds, barking, car/bus/train/plane. I've watched for other people noticing, hearing, "spontaneous" reactions. I've been looking at correlation to earth quakes, weather, and types of folks hearing this.

I've seen reports from Azerbaijan to Denmark, from the East China coast to France, from New Zealand to Alaska and Canada.

The only thing I can say for certain is that there are three different types (with no correlating/corresponding data that I can find, meaning one is in daylight, or one when it's an open field, et cetera). They are described as:

1. Hums/"engine" noises: noises that continue for a length of time, often building in intensity and then reducing in intensity, but not stopping for a period of time (period of time varies). Some folks describe it as an engine that's idling, rev'ing, then idling again, sometimes for hours. Most people think this comes from the sky/above. Some people claim that there are vibrations which "move through" the air with these. I can't confirm that, although I've looked at trees and wind chimes and various other dangling things that would likely move if one could actually feel them.

2. Intermittent noises: thumps or bangs (which would indicate a collision between two (or more) objects) that have a pattern, repeating the pattern several times over a short(ish) length of time. Many people seem to think this sound comes from below/under. The sounds are definitely repetitive, semi-regular, and have been described as a giant drill bit slamming into the earth, or, in more fanciful terms, a giant itself walking, stopping, and then walking again. Some people claim that there are vibrations that can be felt with this. I have not noted any indication that there would be vibrations felt, as cameras didn't seem to jiggle, windows seemed to stay still, and people weren't insisting there was an eq.


3. Trumpets. Not the crystal sounds of Kenny G wafting through the atmosphere, though. It's more like a breathy, lengthy single note sound that then drops in pitch: laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa daaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Some compare it to a conch shell call, but it's most often compared to a Shofar blast; it is repeated several times (or more, but always at least three times, from what I can gather). All people who hear this state it comes from the sky. There are different types of Shofar calls; for example, one announces day break, one to gather together, one for mealtimes, et cetera,. For those that don't know about Shofar blasts, it makes some interesting reading. It is a traditional biblical communication horn, and takes some skill and breath control to be heard over miles (and some can be).

As for me, again, I've found nothing other than that which I catagorized above (the three types). There is no regularity in weather (I considered overcast/cloud cover as an easy way to account for sounds traveling and/or being magnified, for example, but it didn't pan out. Nothing that matches; different people, in many different parts of the world, hearing one or all of the sounds.

The one thing that I haven't correlated (because I don't have the skills to do it) is space weather. It would be interesting to see if these sounds even somewhat correlate to solar flares, or highly ionized environments - like the auroras; one professor from somewhere in Canada has dismissed all this as "electromagnetic resonance and/or radiation belt waves that are hearable." And while that may be, and I can't say definitely otherwise, my question to him would be "well then, why are we now hearing it, when we didn't before?" To my knowledge, that question was not asked in the interview (or if it was, the answer was not aired. LOL).

I will say this: while there may be some frauds (and there are, indeed, some fraudulent vids/recordings), there are too many, in too wide a space (global) for this to be any sort of intentional hoax. And I also wonder why it would be, that so many people, of so many different cultures, races, religions, economic status, geographical locations, and so on, be involved in the hoax?

Maybe the hoax is being perpetrated on them, and they are just reporting what they see/hear/feel. Some say that this is a publicity stunt for a movie (but the movie has either not come out, or the punch line to the publicity stunt has not occurred).

But it occurs to me that this is too far widespread for this to be a hoax; governments would have to comply; citizens would be fooled/scared, and may take panic actions because of it, and then they'd be blamed. Again, I am positive that I have listened to some fake things; but I also think I've heard some real ones. I've seen people pour out of buildings (in Canada) and all stand there talking about the sounds, and fall silent when the sound returns. I've seen people at gas stations, or people on the side of the road, or people in farming communities talk about what they've heard together with strangers.

So yes, while I am sure some of the vid is fake, I am also positive that most of it is not...and that this is a real occurance, and as yet not understood by anyone. The reasons given (the eq in Wisconsin, for example, or the electromagnetic field being heard) do not bear out over time and space - the eq for Wisconsin, for example, does not explain the sounds in Dallas, let alone the sounds in New Zealand, over a space of several hours (Wisconsin/Dallas) or several weeks (Wisconsin/New Zealand).

The ONLY thing which may be possible is that the entire earth's mantle is shifting, and moving. That has not happened in many centuries/millennia, so no one would actually know what it sounded like. But that's so far reaching and odd, and I'd expect to see far more evidence in terms of earthquakes, that I can't even reasonably believe that possibility.

All I know is that the more I look into this, the more creeped out and eerie this stuff makes me feel. LOL.

I wish I knew...or had a reasonable idea or framework that I could put this into. I don't. And that's spooky.

Just thought I'd share my ideas/thoughts/whatevers this morning. Well, it was morning when I started writing this post. LOLOL.

I'm rewatching this Nova on the Magnetic Pole shift-- seems like a good time to do so...


NOVA Magnetic Pole Flip 530,000 Years Overdue & Happening Now? - YouTube

Earth is a beast. I love her. People are scared, fear and such, but it's like a hard reset on a computer. Had the computer had feelings, I am sure with knowing it would be scared, too.

Cows, I am sure, feel the same way before being tranquilized in the head --- well, at least off of pictures I have seen.

I would imagine we would feel the same way in the face of what we were seeing.

However, I do believe in the power of manifestation... and the thought process we won't have to see anything like this.

If that makes sense.

:blowkiss:
Quiche, I'm starting to think that solar weather may have something to do with it...but don't have the understanding of all that to make sense of it. LOL. But at least I have learned something along the way!

And I'm not sure about the mantle slipping, either. I re-read my post, and wanted to clarify that. I don't know that this is the mantle slipping; I don't know what it could be.

I don't really know, but I am having fun learning a lot about geology, magnetic pole shift (which really seems to be happening), volcanos, and astrophysics (well, not a lot about astrophysics, but a little bit more about it, shall we say...). It's a really interesting puzzle...and I'll keep poking about at it until I've satisfied myself that there is no answer, I've found the answer, or the world ends. LOL.

I've been ruminating the solar flare angles, especially in conjunction with a diminishing magnetic shield. It just seems like it could make some noise, doesn't it? :waitasec:

You and me both. I was thinking that this is a combo of solar flare/ionization along with a lowered magnetic field, which usually protects us from the sun's flares.

All sound is wave length, right? So is light. It's all the same principle, just different apparatus to sense them - eyes, ears. And if I understand the magnetic field concept, it's like a cover or blanket, world wide, that repels solar flare stuff.

If one assumes (yes, I know) that the solar flares occur, take a day or three to travel here, and there are "weak/weaker" spots in the magnetic field, that somehow, the noise is connected to the solar flares coming in to the atmosphere through the weaker spots in the magnetosphere, and, as it's waves, once they hit something like earth, the waves then travel outward.

That would account for people hearing noises from the sky.

http://www.space.com/6293-mystery-roar-faraway-space-detected.html
Apparently, in 2009, there were some noises recorded. Sound waves don't travel through a vacuum, and supposedly the universe/galaxy is a vacuum for the most part. But radio waves do travel through vacuums...

The questions I have, however, are still these:
1. would this account for the widespread aspect of these sounds?
2. Would this account for the difference in the sounds heard?
3. How does one tell where the magnetic pole is weaker, and possibly allowing the breakthrough of the sun's "song"? Or maybe, it's the Universe's song.
4. And how does all this account for some other anomalies that we've seen lately, like the rise in the number of significant earthquakes, massive storms, and so on? How much does the sun and it's flares play into that?
5. How does the coming "galactic alignment" figure into all this (my nod to the 2012 Mayan calendar..."

Hm. Something to ponder while I work in the garden.

I don't know why they are blaming it on that earthquake when most people hear the sounds in the early evening/night..the noises seem loud enough that they would be heard during the day. I wonder if they have stopped yet?

It seems as though folks are trying to credit a 1.5 earthquake! LOL, I don't agree... you couldn't feel that, let alone hear it. This blurb is from yesterday-- it seems they're continuing, but not as frequent. IMO

I think, to be honest, that something had to be said, so that the population of the "listening" area felt better. Because no one really understands what these (amazingly prolific and widespread) sounds are, someone had to say something reassuring.

A 1.5 is rarely, if ever, felt. It probably has no sound, unless it's right below your feet. And even then, I don't think it would be felt. We (the world) have literally hundreds of 1.5 and 2 size daily. It's just not something that we feel.

I don't see the eq as the cause of the sounds.

I do think there is a cause. I don't know what it is. I also think that a lot of people are "hyper-vigilant" because it's 2012, and, like Y2K, there are some concerns about the end of the world.

And much as I hesitate to admit it, I have recently seen far too many "the end is nigh" videos and articles, about things that are unexplainable in a reasonable, easy, set of facts that are the norm. Like, there is some information that the sun/stars/moon has moved - the Inuit, for example, and folks in Greenland both say that the sun has risen early/in a different place.

We ARE seeing far larger eq's in places, and more frequently, over the last 8 or so years. We ARE in a solar maximum year. We WILL have an unusual alignment (1 time per 26,000 years) on 12/21/12. We are seeing strange weather, and more bizarrely large storms and floods, early arrival of tornados, snow storms very late in the season. Magnetic North has shifted, and is speeding up that shift, at a rate of 40 miles a year now. And so on. I think my favorite surprise was hearing people say "there is global climate change happening on other planets!"

But what does it mean?

Oh, heck, I dunno. Do I think the world is actually going to end? No...but something is going on.

I don't know what. And I'll keep thinking about it. But something is going on. I wonder what "web-bot" thinks??

Shifting of the magnetic poles - now there's some change I can believe in!!!
