Could it be pile driving? That sound carries quite a bit.

Happily I do not hear it. From your description I might speculate you are hearing noise coming from the I495 HOT Lane or Dulles Metrorail construction sites near 495/267/66/Tyson's Corner?

That's my thinking too - pile driving from road construction.

OP - How annoying! Sorry that you have to endure the bad humor of some CD posters. My guess would be pilings too. It's amazing what you can hear in NoVA from so far away.

Ear plugs work wonder. At least if it's keeping you awake at night.
