Nasty storm over me last night around 2-3AM CST. adsb exchange had commercial flights staying away. US Military transponders were turned off except for a couple in Florida, and 1 or two on the west coast, no more that 5 total. Interesting thing is, in between rumbles of thunder, I thought I could hear frequent “pops” that based on the sound, came from very high altitudes. I’m not saying there was an epic air battle using the storm as cover last night, but I’m not ruling it out.
