18th January 2012 at 10:47 people in Winthorpe and people as far as Gainsbourgh were reporting that they were disturbed by something that first made people think it was a start of an earthquake
Now after i have talked and done some investigations to try and find out as much as i can.
I was told that it wasn't like a tremor or quake because it seemed like large single jolt more than anything.
On the 12 of January 2012
Their were reports that people in the east cost of England and Scotland all felt a force that was soon to be admitted by the RAF more information about that below :
Earthquake calls blamed on jet sonic boom
The reports of an earthquake have been blamed on the sonic boom from a Tornado GR4
Public reports of an
earthquake felt in south east Scotland and north east England have been
blamed on the sonic boom from a military jet.
The British Geological Survey (BGS) was called by people as
far apart as Eyemouth in the Borders and just north of Sunderland on
Thursday afternoon.
It contacted the RAF which had two military jets on exercise in the area.
RAF Boulmer confirmed a single Tornado GR4 fighter aircraft had completed a pre-planned supersonic sortie.
The incident happened at about 15:15, after which the BGS
started to receive reports from towns and villages spread about 70 miles
(115km) apart along the east coast.
The BGS said the furthest inland reports were received from Duns, Wooler and Bedlington.
One reported that "the whole house shook violently for a
couple of seconds" while another described it as a "very heavy rumble,
as if an absolutely massive lorry had passed right next to me".
A sonic boom is the sound associated with the shock waves created when an object, such as an aircraft, breaks the sound barrier.
Sonic Event - 12 January 2012 at approximately 15:13 UTC
On the afternoon of 12 January 2012, from
around 15:20 UTC, the BGS began to receive information from the media,
the police and many residents in predominantly coastal towns and
villages in the southern Scottish Borders, Northumberland and Tyne &
Wear, who reported that they felt what many had thought to have been
an earthquake at sometime around 15:15 UTC.
Data from the BGS seismic networks in the
region were examined and signals consistent with a possible sonic
origin were recorded at around 15:13/15:14 UTC on several stations.
The observations received from the pubic are similar to those which have
been received previously for sonic booms. The RAF were contacted
and advised that there were two military jets on exercise in the area
at the time. Several members of the public have also reported seeing two
military planes flying in the area at the time of the occurrence. RAF
Boulmer have since confirmed that a single Tornado GR4 fighter aircraft
had completed a pre-planned supersonic sortie to RAF Marham in Norfolk.
The extent of the effects of the sonic boom
were felt over a distance of approximately 115 km, stretching from
Eyemouth, Scottish Borders, to just north of Sunderland, Tyne and Wear.
The locations furthest inland from where reports were received were
Duns, Wooler and Bedlington. Reports described "roof rattled, floor
bounced", "the whole house shook violently for a couple of seconds",
"very heavy rumble, as if an absolutely massive lorry had passed right
next to me", "the front door shook and the letterbox flapped", "door
rattled on its hinges and floorboards flexed causing my chair to move
whilst I was in it " and "vibration lasted for around 5 seconds with a
rumbling noise".
A sonic boom is the sound associated with
the shock waves created when an object, such as an aircraft, breaks the
sound barrier. An aircraft travelling slower than the speed of sound
(~760 mph) creates a series of audible pressure waves that spread out
in front and behind it. These waves travel at the speed of sound. As
the speed of the aircraft increases these waves get closer together and
at the speed of sound they merge into a single shock wave that starts
at the nose and ends at the tail of the aircraft.
The boom is created by the sudden increase
in pressure at the nose and also as the pressure returns to normal at
the tail as the aircraft passes. This can lead to a distinctive "double
boom". The shock wave or boom continues to be generated for as long as
the aircraft is supersonic, which is why they are typically observed
along a long strip along the flight path of the aircraft.

Now it makes me Wonder. If these sonic boom effects can cause such an alarm then i would recommend the RAF inform the public in advance before tests are taken on.
Also, as we are now in 2012 a year that may be the most challenging year for all of man kind with our current alignment that will cause us natural disasters alone with out the need of the RAF creating man made ones.
How do we know if these sonic boom waves are not effecting / or could maybe induce real quakes.
Maybe a sonic boom jolt from above could be like an invitation to cause a fault.
We have 2 solid reports on 2 evenings in the same Month and the have confessed about the 1st sonic test. and this time they must be responsible fore the one that stretched from Grimsby to Winthorpe.
I know that when it was talked about on BBC's look north the next day, They had no idea for the cause at all.
Only the event on the 12th was verified.
Follow my blog and i will keep you all informed.
