I could hear and sometimes feel those exercises all the way in Burke when I lived there. They occasionally shook the house! |

I was doing a basement workout and thought the bass on my music was too loud.

| I'm in Vienna and my house shook earlier today. I thought DH must have fallen hard, but no. Quantico is 30+ miles away, that's wild. |

Wow, that's some heavy artillery. Howitzer's!?!? |

| Aren't there plains states where this can be done? |

Now I'm starting to wonder if all of those thumps I've heard/felt over the years and assumed were local house construction and renovation were actually artillery 40 miles away.
Huh |

Who is "they" and how should "they" have contacted you? |

I guess they could do a fly-over and drop leaflets |

Wait I’m in Rockville and was on a call and also heard something and the windows rattled a little. Maybe around 2 pm.
Anyone else in MoCo? |
