Around 5:00 PM on Saturday, people from Owego to Broome county and all the way down to Northern Pennsylvania began reporting odd shaking and a loud “explosion” noise. Reports said they “felt their houses and windows shaking.” The Tioga County Sheriff’s Department would not say if they received any calls. They told WICZ they “have no comment or information at the moment.” An Official from the Binghamton Airport said “it is not possible for a commercial plane to move fast enough to create a sonic boom.” He added that the airport has no record of any military training going on in the area.

Mystery of the loud boom that shook homes over upstate New York AND the UK at exactly the same time despite being 3,000 miles apart

One possible explanation is that the loud noise and ground shaking could have been a meteorite breaking up in the atmosphere, which would result in a sonic boom.

The U.S. Geological Survey did not report any seismic activity or earthquakes in the area at the time of the shaking, although a small earthquake did take place just two hours later.

The magnitude 1.5 quake was centered about four miles west of Lockport and happened at 6:27 p.m. local time
