Unseen object's, Very loud sonic booms over Mebane NC

Two Extremely loud sonic booms over Mebane N.C.

Ok many people in Mebane heard it over a wide area, car alarms went off and folks all over were awakened Sunday morning at about 1:10 am . it was one Very loud sonic boom followed about 3 to five seconds later by another not quite as loud. which leads me to beleave it was more than one object I ran outside and that’s when I heard the jet engines (or jets) heading south southwest from where I live. 1 mile north of 85-40 and Buckhorn rd.(I beleave the engine sounds were from fighter type craft not Commercial transport planes.) Im pretty shure it was more than 1 due to the two very separate sonic booms.

there was a cloud ceiling so I never saw any lights.

Don’t want to get any of our A.F. pilots in any trouble, but it did startle a lot of people.
