Last night, we kept hearing noises that sounded like thunder, but there were no storms appearing near us on radar.  Others  had reported hearing these also.   I did see a few flashes of lightning way off i the distance but not close enough to hear thunder.  The sheriff’s dept reported that someone was shooting fireworks off about 10 miles from us, but I know what fireworks sound like, and this noise wasn’t that.  The last time I heard it was about 1 AM while I was in bed, and by that time, most of the radar was clear.
