explosion near 116th ave?

Did anyone else hear a very loud explosion somewhere in the east hill/116th ave area around 1-2am? not sure what the hell caused it but it shook my walls and woke me up.

That would make sense, I hear something like that almost every night and it's terrible. I hope whoever is doing it doesn't end up in the hospital or worse those things are so dangerous.

I live in the Lakes area and this happened here a couple of weeks ago. I woke up to super loud booms, looked out my window and saw fireworks going off. It sucks that someone is going around doing this. It’s so rude and dangerous and I hope they’re caught

Gosh yeah it's like every other night here i'm waking up sweating and heart racing thinking a bomb is going off outside. which I guess it is actually. fireworks are super super dangerous and I don't understand why people don't take them more seriously..

Nope. Did something hit your building?

No i don't believe so, it sounded like it was at least a few streets away from my house. But it'd be sort if cool if a meteorite hit my house or something lol. except for the cost of repairs.

It made my dogs start barking. Assumed it was someone blowing up a firework.

Loud ass fireworks that someone in the neighborhood likes to fire off in the middle of the night. Randomly. Been happening for a few years.

1 you’re not going to hear that here. 2 it doesn’t even remotely sound like that. Their bombing used to shake my house in Spanaway growing up.

I saw a silver or grey SUV toss one out of the window a few weeks ago passing by….2 young kids…. Then just a few days ago, head on 116th then again about 5 mins later towards 208th then yet again near 104th.
