whamming
Striking with force
Whamming is hitting or striking something with force, often with a loud impact: The shutters kept whamming against the house all night.
It can describe repeated forceful collisions or the act of delivering a powerful blow.
The word carries onomatopoeic energy—you can almost hear the impact.
