A low hum in Canada, Langley British Columbia
Oscillating, almost whining far away sound that cannot be blocked out by anything, plus pressure that feels like it is coming from the floor/ground, although months of detection shows no ground source for pressure. I feel it through the night and so does my Dad. Other family in house do not say they are really bothered by it. I've read that low frequency vibrating is like this - hurts some people, but not others. It is not farming, road work, hvac or heat pumps .... I've been looking all over the place with a sound meter.

Has this happened to you?
Write it down while you still remember the details. We will look for the others.
If this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
Nothing is tracked back to you and nothing is sent on your behalf. The link is just the page you are reading.
