Loud booms: Not meteors this time but Fort Knox

The answer to the loud noises from across Kentuckiana are finally given.
The 19th Engineer Battalion demolishes the last remaining WWII barracks at Fort Knox.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) – No, it's not meteors falling from the sky across Kentuckiana like happened before Thanksgiving.

This time it's Fort Knox.

They confirm to us that The 19th Engineer Battalion has been doing some demolition training the past few days. If you've lived around here long enough you know the sound (and the vibration) from Fort Knox travels.

WHAS11 had several calls and messages from viewers in Southern Indiana who hear the activity and also from viewers who live in South Louisville. I wouldn't be surprised if people in Oldham County are hearing it too. Gerry in South Louisville just told me, "it sounds like we're being invaded!"
