According to the social networks of Canada, on March 25, 2021, at about half past three in the morning local time, thousands of residents of Montreal were woken up by a terrible crash, which shook the walls.

Last night #thunder in the West Island of #Montreal. See lightening flash in the first second, then rumble. This was heard over the entire island and off island in Ile Perrot and Laval. It rumbled on for awhile. pic.twitter.com/0mX4nPaw02

Over the past couple of years, there have been a lot of reports of unexplained rumbles from the sky, but not always these messages are accompanied by audio files, so that people at least get an idea of what is happening. But Montreal is interesting because there are a lot of commercials and the rumble is heard well. 

The thunder was accompanied by flashes somewhere in the sky, so when watching the videos, it may seem that we are talking about lightning. But it's not lightning! Not lightning because there were no storms there at that time, they were only later thought out. The first alarm calls of citizens were first signed up by the military, who traditionally took everything on themselves and sang about the plane that broke the sound barrier. Only by the evening of the coming day, the weather forecasters arrived and began to convince everyone about the "thunder and lightning".

Original news

Thunder? Earthquake? Skyquake? Montrealers on the western side of the island reported as many as three tremendous booms that rattled homes early in the morning of March 25.

Montrealers have been taking to social media Thursday to ask the same question: What was the sound that shook people out of their beds at approximately 3:26 a.m.?

Here’s another video of the sound that woke Montreal up last night:

Front-door security camera footage has been gradually appearing on Twitter, showing what appears to be one momentous thunderclap that roared through the sky.

Anecdotal reports have described the flash as being followed by a sonic boom — as many as two loud booms followed by a longer one — that rattled homes and shook people out of bed.

“Breaking the sound barrier? (An) exploding train station? We clearly have no tectonic plates that can move (closely together)……”

The sound and light may have been isolated, as Montrealers largely on the western side of the island — and residents of towns as far off as Huntingdon — are talking about it. Weather reports show a storm approaching from the west:

“Maybe it was just because it (struck) overhead, but the sound had nothing to do with the strength of the thunderstorm. … We don’t know exactly why it was that loud,” Simon Legault, a meteorologist with Environment Canada, told the Montreal Gazette.

Strangely enough, this isn’t the first time the West Island has reported huge, thunderous sounds above them. Last year in July, Dollard-des-Ormeaux residents heard an eerie noise that they said sounded like trumpets in the sky.

Thunder? Earthquake? Skyquake? I guess we will never know what really happened last night around 3:30AM in Montréal.

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

The storm

The storm is an atmospheric phenomenon in which the inside of clouds or between the cloud and the earth's surface arise electrical discharges - lightning accompanied by thunder. It is quite a common natural phenomenon in certain situations could be considered something abnormal, such as when it appears under unusual conditions or unfamiliar to the eyewitness. A vivid example is the so-called "snow storm" (or "snow storm"), i.e. thunderstorm, which is when rain falls heavy snow, freezing rain or ice pellets.
