Could solar flare have caused loud booms across Northern Wisconsin?

Nothing to disprove the existence of unicorns either.
Of course, not a lot of statistical evidence in favor, but maybe there are a couple of them. Somewhere.

One correlation could perhaps be had with a huge proton storm and bedrock that contains large amounts of quartzite.
Quartz has semiconductor properties when physically shocked (piezoelectric effect). Since protons are mass, perhaps there is an undocumented effect that could cause these noises. Additionally, it was said that there were lights and sparks seen over the region of the Mexican earthquake.

Most likely pseudo-science until proven, but there is so much we do not understand about the Sun and physical anomalies that could occur in extreme interactions with the Earth. I would not throw out the possibility that they are related, purely based upon the scientific interactions that we do know about.

I propose that the Russian, Siberian Tundra methane holes in the permafrost that are around 80 feet in diameter & up to 150 feet deep... could very well be the source of the 'booms' or other strange sounds

it might be possible that the winds, icy winds of the Arctic, carry the booms to N. America in some manner

stranger things have happened
