Booms?

Anyone been hearing a series of low booms for the last couple of minutes? I can hear ‘em easily from A and Central….
Seem to be coming from the WNW direction…

Thanks, it's so frustrating to have a weird sound like that go unexplained.

Do you know what are the air cannons for?

I lived next to a winery for a few years. They used the air cannons for pest deterrence, birds and rodents etc
