In the early fifties, I lived in a small California town named Tehachapi - elevation 4K ft. During that time, they would announce nuclear tests and they happened usually around 6:00 AM. A couple of times I went out in the front yard and sat on the lawn to wait for the test to occur. When it happened, it would be a sharp, piercing, heavy sounding bang. It wasn't a clap, & didn't echoe. I as amazed I could hear it all that way from Nevada.
