PHILADELPHIA - A disturbance in the mid-level of the atmosphere passed through the Northeast Tuesday. Meanwhile, the jet stream with strong winds was passing through Delaware and southern New Jersey during the day.

A jet streak – which is a stronger push of air within the jet stream.The combination of the two forces provides some explanation for the sound many heard Tuesday afternoon, because of a temperature inversion.A temperature inversion happens when warm air is in the upper atmosphere while colder air is at the surface.

Sound is trapped in the cool, lower level.Any kind of boom or sound that happens in the upper atmosphere and comes down to the ground will be trapped and that sound will travel farther.

Kenney says federal government’s use of Emergencies Act ‘not necessary’ in Alberta
Trudeau invokes Emergencies Act for 1st time to aid convoy blockade response Kenney referenced the Critical Infrastructure Defence Act, legislation that allows law enforcement to arrest and fine anyone impeding what is deemed critical economic infrastructure, including railways and highways.He said the legislation gives the province sanctions “that are quite similar to the court injunction obtained by Ontario” to break up a blockade on the Ambassador Bridge in Windsor, Ont., over the weekend.Kenney said he is concerned invoking the Emergencies Act could have the potential to make things worse at the Coutts blockade.“I think at this point, for the federal government to reach in over top of us, without offering anything in particular, would frankly be unhelpful,” Kenney said.“I think we need to find ways to effectively enforce without escalating the situation.” RCMP arrest 13 people, seize weapons and ammunition near Coutts border blockade Kenney’s comments come after several arrests were made and more than a dozen long guns, handguns, ammunition and body armour were seized at the blockade. The premier described the group as a “militant cell” and said it’s why there has been “a relatively light touch on enforcement.”It’s the first time the Emergencies Act has been enacted in Canada, which Trudeau said would have a time and geographic limitation to areas impacted by the blockades and where law enforcement deems the expanded powers are needed.According to Trudeau, the expanded powers will give police more tools for enforcement and allow the RCMP to enforce municipal bylaws and provincial offences where it’s necessary.“The potential for violent acts I think remains.

PHILADELPHIA - Authorities say a Philadelphia family was held captive over the weekend by a group of armed intruders who tortured one of the family members and forced withdraws from various banks.Philadelphia Police Captain Jack Ryan told reporters that the situation started Friday afternoon when a 45-year-old man was robbed and "abducted" by three suspects in front of his home on the 4600 block of Decatur Street in Holmesburg.Ryan said the "criminal gang" then entered the victim's home where they held his family of three, including a 10-month-old, captive throughout the weekend. The victim's 68-year-old father and a friend of the wife came to the house from Saturday to Sunday and were also held prisoner by the group. During the weekend, captors forced the man to withdraw a "significant amount of cash" from various banks as his family was being held hostage. Ryan said at one point in the weekend a family member was "tortured" and has since been treated and released from an area hospital. The family was released on Sunday night and immediately called the Philadelphia Police Department. "They're all okay, as well as you can be after undergoing an ordeal such as that," Ryan said. MORE LOCAL HEADLINES___DOWNLOAD: FOX 29 NEWS APP | FOX 29 WEATHER AUTHORITY APPSUBSCRIBE: Good Day Digest Newsletter | FOX 29 Philly on YouTubeAdvertisementFOLLOW: Facebook | Instagram | Twitter
