Default 94 hatch - Clunking in rear help!!

So I have a 94 cx hatch and it is now making a clunking noise when I drive, as soon as I start going in any Direction it clunks with how fast I'm going. It just started doing this this morning after I drove the car in last nights crazy storm. This **** is really annoying! Before the wheel made a slight humming sound but now it is a mad clunking noise!
Would it be time for a disk conversion?
Please any positive feedback appreciated

Nothing yet, It started on my way to work this morning.
First fwd car, and new to this drum brake, I am a 240sx guy.
I think it could be wheel bearing but I'm not sure

check for, lose wheel lug nuts, torn rear trailing arm bushings, or it could be a blown shock. Those are the first thimg I would check in that order

I don't think it is blown shock, the rears are new and I have been driving on them for about a week or so now. No oil on the shock at all. Still compresses and everything feels solid. I will check The trailing arm later

Did you remember to switch over the large metal washers from your old rear shocks

Alright I figured out what it was, as I walked past the car from being aggrevated I kick my back wheel and it moved. It's then I realized that someone took off my lug nuts and left one on there or 3 of them fell off from driving through 2 ft puddles -__-
Thank you for your responses and sorry for the pointless thread.
