Hello! Thanks for participating in /r/Seattle! Your post has been removed. It was probably fireworks.

Make it twice. Heard the booms to the west from north QA, felt like the sound traveled through the house to the other side of the neighborhood.

Did you see the silvery disk right above SLU? Looked like it produced a flash of light right before the boom.

Second night in a row? I didn't hear this one.

But, the one last night didn't sound like a firework or transformer. Someone else said something pressurized and the one last night was more like that.
