Low frequency pulsing sound above house, flash of light and momentary power outage and sound instantly gone
Approximately at 1:00 A.M., Sunday morning on Sept 14, 2003 I awoke due to my back bother me and the discomfort of a new bed. I tried to get comfortable noting that the time was 1:09 A.M.. Laying and looking out of my window I noted the sound of what I thought was a helicopter approaching. It is not an unusual occurance for medi-vac copters to have a flight path to the Everett Hospital. The noise which sounded like copter blades creating a pressure wave vibrated my house some what. The sound increased and then remained over head. There was not a shift in the pitch of the sound indicating movement. I became somewhat irritated and thought to myself, "why arent they moving the helicopter". My second thought was that if may be a sheriffs dispatched helicopter. The sound persisted approximately 5 min. At that point I decided I needed to check out what the source was. There was then a bright flash that eminated from outside and lit my room up and caused a temporary power outage. At the same time of the light flash the sound instantly subsided completely going silent. My electric fan and digital clock powered down and then came back up. I then jumped from my bed and went to the southern window of my room and was looking east to the alley way and noticed that our alley light was at a low glow. I assumed that the momentary power outage caused the pud alley light to shut off (or the bright flash trip the optical light sensor). I then threw on my jeans and went to the front yard (approximately 30 to 45 seconds elapsed from the time of the flash to my being in my front yard). Standing in my front yard looking up there was no sound, no swooshing noise or low frequency pulsing. The neighbors dog three houses away was barking. I returned to my bed room at approx. 1:30. The next day I enquired of the neighbors if they had heard any unusual noises that morning. The one neighbor remembered hearing what she thought was sometype of machine and she recalled thinking that she should go and ! check to see what was making the noise but she had her 1 year old grand daughter with her and chose to go back to sleep.
