http://www.sott.net/article/298616-Fear-of-volcano-eruption-in-Manipurs-Ukhrul-district-as-continuous-flow-of-ashes-smoke-eminate-from-village-swamp

Quote: "A continuous flow of smoke and ashes from a swamp at a place near Old Wahong village of Manipur's Ukhrul district has left villagers fearing of natural calamity in the form of volcanic eruption any time, a daily reported Tuesday. Villagers said that smoke radius of about two feet along with ashes have been seen gushing out from the earth's surface at Shitru area, since last two weeks."

Quote: "A mysterious underground fire has created numerous sink-holes that emit smoke and gas in a nearby forest of Old Wahong Village in Northern Ukhrul."

Quote: "According to villagers, the inferno had so far engulfed an area of about 40 sq ft creating various sink-holes on the ground at a nearby forest areas locally known as Sitru located about 1 km toward south of Old Wahong habitation. They said that the locals came to know of the mysterious phenomenon after a 16-year old boy Wisdom accidentally slipped his foot into the ground while venturing into the forest with a friend around the end of May last. He sustained grievous burn injuries on his left foot."

Note: More underground fires. Hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas which will tend to flow to low-lying areas, like underground facilities. It's also reactive with rust and electrified copper, so it's causing problems with electrical infrastructure, including the wiring in vehicles of all kinds. But methane and hydrogen sulfide are also coming up FROM the ground, thus those methane explosion craters in Siberia in the last year, and the hydrogen sulfide they found six feet down in the soil near Chinchilla (Australia) last year. So the ground itself may simply ignite or explode here and there, as with the ground burning at that village in India. Both gases are also water-soluble, thus the river on fire in China and the burning lake in India. Once that huge methane clathrate deposit off the US East Coast really gets going we may see the ocean itself ignite, and if it does then we may never be able to put that fire out. Eventually the oxygen levels in the atmosphere will drop so low that all the fires around the world will sputter out, but we'll be long gone by then, since we need oxygen too...

Quote: "Despite initial reports that train cars derailed, there was no derailment and the fire only involved one car, Blount County Sheriff's spokeswoman Marian O'Briant said. Authorities ordered a 2-mile evacuation, and hazmat crews responded to the scene, O'Briant said."

Quote: "From what I understand the chemical that has been released, one of the by products of combustion, being on fire, is it released cyanide..."

Note: Not a derailment, just a chemical tanker car bursting into flame. Apparently it was hauling a nasty chemical in that car which, if burned, produces cyanide gas, thus the cyanide kits issued, in case people in the area started collapsing and dying from cyanide poisoning. That's also why so many people were evacuated. Luckily, as we were just assured a few days ago, when two different trains caught fire, mentioned in the 2015-06-22 update, train fires are extremely rare *cough cough*...

The flight supervisor confirmed that he saw smoke billowing behind the plane and ordered [the pilot] to eject,' the source said."

The Oakland Expressway bridge initially was blocked off from the south end by law enforcement officers about 200 yards from the scene. The explosion occurred in Soldier Township."

Note: Apparently they had some fireworks in the car and that's what exploded. What ignited them? Is gunpowder now spontaneously igniting here and there? That could pose a problem for anyone in the fireworks industry, and indeed, there have been a lot of anomalous fires and explosions relating to fireworks, many of them fatal. I'm gonna add gunpowder to my list of things to avoid!

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/07/05/spain-portugal-wildfires_n_7730028.html

Note: Spain and Portugal are on the western side of Europe, so they're basically the California of Europe. Just like the US and Canadian west coasts are burning hard, because they're downwind of the Pacific Ocean, it looks like Europe will have the same problem with the Atlantic Ocean. All the methane gushing from the Atlantic Ocean off the US East Coast is gonna go somewhere. Winds tend to blow west-to-east, due to the rotation of the Earth, so one would expect Spain and Portugal to burn first and hardest among European countries...

2015-07-06 - Scores of wildfires in Western Canada creating disaster of historic proportions:
http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/scores-of-wildfires-in-western-canada-creating-a-disaster-of-historic-proportions
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/unprecedented-wildfires-force-out-13-000-sask-evacuees-1.3139554

Quote: "Forest fire season has hit Canada early, and it has hit Canada hard. As of Monday more than 2 million hectares of forest were on fire, thousands were on the run, several battalions’ worth of soldiers were being scrambled to Saskatchewan and even B.C.’s famously moist rainforests had become dry enough to be torn through by flames."

Quote: "By Monday morning, one in every 100 Saskatchewanians was fleeing from fire, with as many as 50 communities turned into ghost towns almost overnight."

Quote: "In what's being dubbed the biggest evacuation effort in Saskatchewan's history, Premier Brad Wall said the number of evacuees affected by raging wildfires in the province's northern regions is 'unprecedented.' 'This particular fire event is different for our province just because of the amount of hectares that are currently burning, which is, by the way, about 10 times the average year,' Wall told reporters mid-afternoon on Monday."

Note: So wildfires are up about 1000% in this area over a normal year...

Quote: "Kosko said he and his wife didn't smell gas before the blast blew out the front wall of their home, knocked a side wall off its foundation and blew debris into his yard and the street."

Note: So not natural gas, or they would have smelled it. Probably methane in this case, which is odorless. Might've gotten sucked into their home via their HVAC system and accumulated until there was enough to cause an explosion. Or maybe they had a window or door open...

2015-07-07 - Update on deadly fire in Moose Jaw (Canada): blamed on accumulated sewer gas:
http://www.ckom.com/story/sewer-gas-cause-fatal-moose-jaw-trailer-fire/566710
http://www.mjtimes.sk.ca/News/Local/2015-07-07/article-4206728/Sewer-gas-build-up-caused-fatal-fire/1
http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/sewer-gas-build-up-caused-mobile-home-fire-which-killed-moose-jaw-woman-1.3141098

Quote: "The Moose Jaw Fire Department is reporting that a mobile home fire that led to the death of a 66-year-old woman was the result of built up sewer gas."

Note: 'Sewer gas' is the common name for hydrogen sulfide, but they mean methane in this case. They think maybe her sewer trap wasn't working and that let sewer gas into the home. That very well could be. A woman was gassed to death by hydrogen sulfide in her home in Kansas City because her sewer trap was dry and that allowed the gas to infiltrate her home. That event was mentioned in the 2013-07-04 update. So a dry sewer trap can result in you being gassed to death in your home or your home exploding as methane and/or hydrogen sulfide get into the home that way. Of course the gases could just blow in through a window or get sucked in through your HVAC system and cause the same problems, so you still aren't safe even if your sewer trap is working fine...

Quote: "The victim was unloading a delivery of pine straw, pushing toward the doors of the trailer, when a spark caught the pine straw on fire. The worker was trapped and died."

Note: Spark from what? Spark out of nowhere? Near something rusty or some electrified copper? Possibly the work of the Ghostly Match. Also, he was unloading a bunch of porous materials, and if they'd adsorbed any methane or hydrogen sulfide then moving that stuff around would help dislodge the gas molecules from whatever they had adsorbed onto - like shaking dust from a rug - and make it more likely that the Ghostly Match would strike...

2015-07-10 - Woman, 58, found burned to death from 'flash fire' outside her home in Northfield (New Hampshire):

http://myinforms.com/en-us/a/14544836-woman-found-dead-outside-northfield-home-after-apparent-flash-fire/
http://www.unionleader.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20150710/NEWS07/150719940

Quote: "A woman was found dead outside of her Oak Hill Road home Friday afternoon the apparent victim of some kind of flash fire. Tilton-Northfield Fire Department Captain Sean Valovanie confirmed that an as-yet unidentified woman, thought to be about 58 years old, was found dead outside her home at 560 Oak Hill Road about 2 p.m."

Quote: "Hutchinson said there apparently was a fire, and smoking materials were found outside the home after the fire near where the victim's body was found."

Quote: "Representatives from the state Fire Marshal's Office and the state Medical Examiner's Office were at the scene of the incident Friday afternoon. 'The police are handling it at this point,' Valovanie said, adding there is no indication at this time of foul play."

Note: 'Flash fires' are flammable gas(es) in the air burning off. She was outside so the only gases that could realistically have burned her to death are methane and hydrogen sulfide. If you have a lit cigarette when a cloud of flammable gas blows over you, you're likely to die from a 'flash fire' just like her. This has happened a fair number of times now...

Quote: "He said there were also some reports that people on the beach smelled some sort of chemical smell, perhaps sulphur or butane."

Quote: "Another beachgoer, Stacey Beal, described a gas odor at the scene."

Quote: "Witnesses described hearing a loud boom noise and seeing the woman get launched from her beach chair into the air. Others reported smelling chemicals, like sulfur, but oddly, there was no smoke or other indications of an explosion."

Note: And the day prior, three fishing boats went up in flames in the wee hours in Narragansett too, mentioned in the 2015-07-10 update. Off the East Coast, a methane clathrate deposit containing 5 trillion pounds of methane is dissociating (melting). Some of that gas will migrate up through the ground and cause explosions and fires. People smelled something too, and that was probably hydrogen sulfide, the sulfur smell or 'gas odor'. The two gases go together because the ancient anaerobic bacteria and archaea that produce hydrogen sulfide eat, among other things, methane. This event is similar to the explosively-formed gas-explosion craters seen in the last year or so on the Yamal Peninsula in Siberia (Russia). This is one of those 'marker events' that we'll be able to look back on later as more coastal areas explode around the world...

2015-07-12 - Seven shipping containers go up in flames at dawn at port in coastal Jordan, beach restaurant burns separately:
http://www.jordantimes.com/news/local/fire-destroys-3-containers-damages-4-aqaba-terminal

Quote: "On Saturday night, the Aqaba Civil Defence Department extinguished another fire that erupted in a ship-shaped restaurant. 'The fire started at 9:30pm on the three-storey restaurant which is located on the beach. The fire was caused by an electrical fault and started on the third floor,' a CDD press officer said."

Note: Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, especially electrified copper. That's the cause of most of the vehicles bursting into flame, but it can affect electrical stuff anywhere. Such fires will break out right where there's copper wiring exposed to the atmosphere and such fires will look like any other 'electrical fire'...

http://www.wopular.com/underground-fire-source-crystal-lake-power-outages-fire-officials-say
http://www.ooyuz.com/geturl?aid=7425332

Quote: "An underground fire Monday in Crystal Lake caused power outages, which at one point affected about 2,000 people, fire officials and ComEd representatives said. The Crystal Lake Fire Rescue Department responded about 6 p.m. to Knaack Boulevard and Route 176 after the cover of a manhole on Knaack Boulevard reportedly blew off, Battalion Chief Thomas Pollnow said on the scene."

Note: Hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas that seeks out low-lying areas, like basements, bodies of water, canyons, ditches, underground facilities, etc. It's also reactive with copper, especially electrified copper. Not only is that causing problems with underground electrical infrastructure but that's also what's causing many of the parked vehicle fires. A sulfur smell was noted at that beach that exploded and injured a woman in coastal Narragansett (Rhode Island), mentioned in the 2015-07-11 update. Both New York City and London pumped innocuous heavier-than-air gases into their subway systems to see where a heavier-than-air gas would go once inside the subways. The London subway gas test was mentioned in the 2013-06-14 update. The NYC subway gas test was mentioned in the 2013-04-26 update. Both cities, not coincidentally, are coastal cities. The US also stationed two billion-dollar blimps, primary mission to detect 'air-breathing threats', along the East Coast late last year, mentioned in the 2014-12-21 update...

http://www.styrk.com/posts/car-fire-in-south-sacramento-spreads-to-home

Quote: "This incident happened on German Drive. When crews arrived to put out the flames, which had spread to the garage, they had to wake up sleeping residents. 'We didn’t have enough smoke to start smoke detectors going. So the people inside had no idea the exterior of the house was on fire,' said a firefighter. The fire totaled one car and damaged two others."

Note: Yeah, mentioned that before, how dangerous these car fires can be, because they can ignite exit paths before smoke alarms inside the building activate. I wouldn't be parking a vehicle near where you live, and definitely not near any doorway or other exit that you might need to use if your vehicle ignites your residence...

2015-07-14 - Underground fire burns for a month and still burning, in coastal North Dartmouth (Massachusetts):
http://www.tauntongazette.com/article/20150714/NEWS/150718233
http://www.southcoasttoday.com/article/20150714/NEWS/150719701/101061

Quote: "Dartmouth District 3 Fire Chief Richard Arruda said firefighters have been to the site about 30 hours over four dates since June 28 to suppress the stubborn underground fire. Firefighters respond to the pit at 383 Hixville Road and each time they believe it has been extinguished, leave the property, only to have it pop back up a few days later."

Note: This sounds like an event that happened in 2012 where a fire broke out along the edge of Lake Woytchugga (Australia) and firefighters couldn't put it out, unextinguishable, mentioned in the 2012-12-12 update. And now that I think about it, that fire on the edge of that lake wasn't all that dissimilar to the beachside explosion that threw a woman and injured her a few days ago in coastal Narragansett (Rhode Island), mentioned in the 2015-07-11 update. Nobody mentioned a sulfur odor in that lakeside fire, whereas they did in Narragansett, and it was a fire at the lake rather than an explosion, but otherwise, pretty similar...

Quote: "Mr Ogden said he was very concerned about the latest incident. 'I want to make sure that all of the buses are safe because we are talking about bus driver safety here ... it's as simple as that,' he said. '[The drivers] want to know what's going on. They want to know why these buses are going up ... we have yet another bus that's gone up in flames, why?'"

Quote: "Perth's public transport system could be thrown into chaos with the union that looks after bus drivers threatening to strike after another Transperth bus caught fire on Tuesday."

Note: The natives grow restless. These are the 440th and 441st buses to burn in 2015...
