Hi Mark,
In the SW Florida area there were no very loud booms as when the space 
shuttle returned. There were many rumblings over ten to fifteen seconds 
and one occurring after I came back from outside after checking the 
disturbance.

The news report "A spokesman with The Naval Air Station in Key 
West,  said at approximately 10am they were conducting an air to air 
combat exercise over Southwest Florida. There were 8 military aircraft 
involved,  including 4 F-16'S and 4 Aggressors.  All eight military 
aircraft were flying at supersonic speeds. Supersonic speeds when 
coupled with the right atmospheric conditions can cause a sonic boom."

Best,
Ken Newton
