A strong traffic spike was detected near Watsonville in the Monterey Bay area on the morning of March 2. No SpaceX launch from Vandenberg occurred that day. A Firefly Alpha mission was scrubbed due to upper-level winds but never launched. Watsonville is roughly 200 miles north of Vandenberg, well beyond the typical range for SpaceX sonic boom propagation. The source could have been a meteor, military aircraft, or atmospheric phenomena.
