I heard it about 4am & it lasted a long while.
I figured we were either under attack or the mother spaceship was hovering out my window somewhere so I just tried to go back to sleep.
I woke up trying 2 recall what it was I thought I heard.

Well it didn't kill me but id did kill a good night's sleep. Only bad part of of living in the Heights especially towards the west side. I heard this before some time ago though.

Any one of those answers is better than a M. Night Shyamalan movie.

It’s weird that I didn’t hear it and everyone elseat home heard the sound, as well as a friend near by and his mom called the cops and they’re the ones who said it was from PSE&G

It was the PSE&G plant in So. Kearny letting off steam. Happens every once in a while, kills ya if ya live in the Heights !

It was the Melvins.

airport says it was them, jcpd says steamplant, i'm going with haarp.

AND WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!!!

Came from a steam plant.. says JCPD

Mystery solved.
Jet engine testing at Newark, airport combined with atmospheric conditions. Suggested by Capn Jon, confirmed with airport by Lysa.
word.

Well if it was going to happen it would have started midnight at our time when it turned 6pm on Christmas Island.... so now what.. the everything JC festival is today in the Heights

No, too early:

"The end is near ... very near, according to the billboards and Camping. Indeed, it's this weekend.

The end of the world will be at exactly 6 p.m. on May 21, 2011, says Camping, who along with his organization, Family Radio, are behind those billboards across the country forecasting the Rapture this Saturday. The Rapture, the Last Days, Armageddon and the Final Days of Judgment are all interchangeable. It's when God will destroy the Earth to show his love for humanity.

Is that Eastern Standard or Pacific Standard Time?

Neither, says Camping, whom I interviewed recently for my online news show TYT Now. The Rapture is at 6 p.m. on May 21, 2011, where ever it's 6 p.m. first, with the "fantastically big" world-ending event taking place on a time zone by time zone basis."

They were probably blowing down a boiler (releasing steam) at the PSE&G plant.

Was having sex, will keep the noise down next time.

I didn't hear it at all, my wife did, but if it was heard in Downtown, the West Side, and Hoboken, I don't think it was a resurfacing machine.

The beginning of the Rapture, of course.

so what was up with that loud rumbling noise last night from 3am-5am? sounded like a jet was landing on 1 and 9. We getting some HAARP action in JC?
