Windsor Rumble Intensifies: 'It was the loudest it's ever been'

It seemed as if the mysterious rumblings had subsided, according to Grete MaKenzie, but Sunday night through early Monday the low pitch humming came back with a vengeance.

“It was the loudest it’s ever been,” she said about the inexplicable rumblings she and thousands of Windsorites have reported hearing in the past eight months.

The 61-year-old said the noise woke her at home about 5:30 a.m. Monday in the 3000 block of Sandwich Street.

“Last night it was really bad,” said MaKenzie. “We went outside and it was almost like it was vibrating your eardrums.”

She said the noise comes and goes, but has been going on far too long.

“We need to identify it," she said.

The Ministry of the Environment has ruled out industrial sources as the culprit, but Coun. Al Maghnieh wants to know why.

“They’re not giving us answers,” he said.

Maghnieh believes the study is not complete. He said he’s received thousands of calls — mostly concentrated in the Windsor West area by Brighton Beach. more

I would be really interested to know if this is the same sound that those enormous tunnelling machines make, that are used for underground tunnel construction. If the conspiracy theories are correct, this is 'those in the know' preparing the underground systems needed to escape what they know is coming. (Elenin havoc)
As they are going at it night and day now (when it started it was pretty much during the day only (ie working hours), it tends to suggest the time is incredibly close, as they just don't care who hears now, and are just bent on finishing.

And that explains the council top knob avoiding answering the questions and fudging...

If you have a look at a youtube vid named Tunneling under a river, you will hear in the background at some points a sound that is very close to the rumbling sound caught on tape in Windsor.Particularly at 1.40 or so. Co-incidence? Heaps of things have a rumbling sound, so its anybody's guess. The pulsating noise heard on the vid from Windsor also suggests a type of drilling that encounters hard rock- like the basic construction tool the hammer drill. Just sayin.
