Ultimately nothing firmly citable... just interesting, and may not pan out. With air defense drills not scheduled until tomorrow, some reports claim a plane also crashed (not the sound) but that the sonic boom was from a plane in pursuit of the crashed plane.

Surely, wtop reporters (and other local news agencies) heard it too. Couldn't they post a headline like "investigating super boom sound that shook DC area" or something?
No, journalists typically aren’t in the business of saying something happened, we don’t know what. Also, the news media isn’t social media — there are editors and processes to publish something.

I think it was about 3:10 here in West Springfield. So it may have happened North to South.

I’m telling you guys… it’s the zombie apocalypse. Either that or the Rapture. Either way, repent now just in case and gather your crossbows and arrows. Things are about to get real.

Just after 3. I started get texts from others asking if I heard it at 3:10. So just before that.
