Friday night, around 8 pm I heard 2-3 loud booms coming from the direction of Sterling Park (I live in a complex off of Drainsville). It was loud enough to wake up my kid. A few minutes later I thought I heard sirens, then I saw my neighbor outside and asked if he knew what it was and he said maybe a car backfiring but I've never heard one do it that loud - nor fireworks. He agreed that it would be odd that a car would be backfiring repeatedly.

About 15 or so minutes later there was a series of 4 less noisey bangs and that was it. About 10 years ago I had heard gunshots coming over from the parking lot in Giant but that was more like a popping sound. I checked the Loudoun police blotter and didn't see anything listed for Friday night. Anybody else hear it or know what it was?

they are blasting for road improvements and building shit

More than likely something would have came up in the public safety of Loudoun Times, don't sweat it mate.

My apologies. I had bad Mexican for dinner, and was making such a stink and commotion my wife told me I couldn't use the shitter and had to go outside. Tip; don't go to El Mercadito Hispano .

I hear them during the day in Ashburn, sounds like they are blasting somewhere between Ashburn and the Potomac river. Maybe they are working on the secret underground mag-line tunnels and they have gotten out to Ashburn area with one of them..

I heard them late at night while walking on the W&OD near Sterling Park and Ashburn earlier this month. Wouldn't be surprised if the explosions were because of what the above poster mentioned.

Earlier in the night a fucking Washington Flyer taxi was driving on the bike path too. Wouldn't be surprised if a bunch of spooks left from the tunnel with the taxi as a cover. Who knows.
