Felt and heard in Bertram also.
Heard/felt a boom near Armadale as well.
South Perth, been sitting next to an open window. Didn't feel or hear anything
In Spearwood. Entire house shook!
Didn't hear or feel anything when I was visiting Joondalup.
Felt absolutely nothing out in Aveley
Felt in Mandurah, too
Heard and felt nothing in highgate Mt lawley
I'm in Perth right now. I didn't feel shit, not even a strong breeze.
Nothing in Kewdale
So volcano discovery with 441 reports, now puts the epicenter of whatever it was, about 4km NE of Baldivis. Not sure how accurate that will be though 🤣 my guess is “not very”.

I’m South, Baldivis, didn’t feel a thing.
No seismic activity in Perth today.
nothing in mt Hawthorn
Nothing in Perth
I felt it in Bayswater too…!
Port kennedy sounded like a distant explosion followed by all the windows rattling, the dog jumped up and started growling also.
Actually yeah I heard that in Cannington about 15 minutes ago
It was caused by the RAAF with Singapore Air force
Felt nothing in kwinana
Ripples in the swimming pool for 8 seconds. Could be a local catastrophe
I was at the beach in alkimos today approximately 11:30am and saw one fighter jet go over me by itself, was going pretty fast and made alot of noise
That's what that was. I thought someone kicked a ball into my front door haha. I had noise cancelling headphones on and just heard a really loud bang.
Couldn't feel a single thing in Riverton. Must've been scary.
I work in the city near northbridge and I heard it when I was walking to get something
It shook our windows and it wasn’t a little rattle I thought my husband was banging on the windows. I was on a video call. I said to the person, I think my husband needs something and he came out and asked why I was banging on the windows. Then it happened again and the person on the call said, shit it’s shaking my windows too. (She’s in Baldivis). Honestly thought it was an earthquake or aftershocks, because there was 2 in the wheatbelt this week.
Can’t seem to find confirmation on what it was though.
Sonic boom?
The West thinks it’s a meteorite.. lol 🤣 W
They get their breaking news from r/perth lol.. love it
Any more info on what it was?
Is it related to the noise last SOR
Im in Melville too…felt and heard nothing.

‘An airspace management source told the ABC that Singaporean F15s were operating in the area at the time the boom was heard.
The source said the F15s were the only aircraft operating that were capable of producing a sonic boom.
The ABC understands the aircraft were in restricted Navy airspace off Garden Island.’
The ABC seems to have some further information: [https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-08-21/large-boom-reported-in-perths-south-investigation/104252548](https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-08-21/large-boom-reported-in-perths-south-investigation/104252548)
"The ABC understands Singaporean F15s capable of producing a sonic boom were operating in the area at the time."
We're in Mandurah and just sitting in the living room when we heard a massive thud. No shaking or anything and in fact we thought something had fallen on our roof. My husband went out but couldn't see anything. Very weird
On the subject of fighter planes, we had the commander of one of the WA brigades in for a chat this week. She touched on the issues they’re facing regarding retention and recruitment, and mentioned she met a fighter pilot who makes the princely sum of 120k per year.
120k is nothing to sneeze at of course, but you’d think a fighter pilot would be on a bit more than that.
Just heard a massively loud bang in the Malaga area
Didn't hear or feel anything in Henderson around the shipyards. Can see Garden Island from the first floor.
East Malaga between 8am-4pm, didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.
Felt it while I was working near Balga just then, around 12:15p(?)
my partner in baldivis felt it i was at work in pinjarra and heard nothing..
I knew there’d be nothing good to come when I opened the second can of beans for breakfast! Beans and egg on toast = delicious 🤤
Currently in Osborne Park and didnt feel a thing.
Though mind you, we get a lot of trucks past that can shake the gfound a bit so it could have been a part of the back ground shaking.
Felt it in Balga! My cats Shat themselfs
Felt nothing in Northbridge
Jolimont, felt nothing at all.

Perthnow Osborne park no movement
In the city.. nothing
Negs. Shenton Park. Ripped off!!!
didn't notice anything in west perth
Sonic booms used to be a regular occurrence, but seem to have dropped off in recent years. I remember hearing them in school all the time
I’m working in east freo. My boss just fell over. Hit the ground pretty hard.
I had a really nasty vindaloo. Sorry Perth.
No earthquakes reported for Perth so must be something else.
Sorry dudes. Been to the loo three times today. I can't gurantee there won't be a fouth either. Tape up your windows.
You seriously have never felt a proper earthquake then
I knew that curry was going to haunt me...
I knew I shouldn't have had curry last night..
Sorry I had some vindaloo last night, apologies in advance 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Massive" .... ??
Fell off the top bunk. Sorry, guys.
there's been a few earthquakes lately!
Confirmed drug lab explosion just now by the media.
meth lab explosion?
Was it a nuclear summer being bombed?
Could it have been one of these?

Guile on an OZ tour.
A sonic boom heard across these distances would mean an F15 would need to be at least 35,000 to 40,000ft high. The same height as a commercial aircraft but travelling about 30% faster than one while being less than 1/3 in size. No one would have been able to see it moving from down here. Not even Tom Cruise…
Obligatory "yo momma fell out of bed" joke.
They’re mostly reporting it as a possible meteorite/asteroid
Some eshay probs using there speaker on public transport caused the shock wave, makes sense coz it was louder SOR
I reckon your cooked ay
Nope for me
It was a meteor like somebody mentioned before but it was very likely one of the Top Gun guys having a bit of fun by the sound of it.
Alright guys, which one of you blew up their meth lab?
Sorry, I had rendang for lunch.
In coming meth supply shortage
It’s literally just US-made aircraft flying around
Might have ruffled some grass.
WE WILL REBUILD
Did anyone have anything electrical begin to pulse afterwards??? Had a few devices with drained batteries begin pulsating around 30minutes after
No it didn't, nothing near the city so it wasn't that "massive"
Nothing from Perth CBD apart from the sound of construction over aboriginal burial grounds.
Earthquake in Perth.. but we're not on a fault line or close to it.
Maybe a Godzilla waking up
I definitely wouldn't say massive as people here including myself are hesitant to affirm it.
But perhaps there was something. I quick Google search reveals a page on volcanodiscovery.com
I'm not sure of the legitimacy of the webpage or it's accuracy. But it is there.
Sorry guys my left nut hit the water when I was shitting just fell out :/
