Event Update For 2016-08-21

http://jumpingjackflashhypothesis.blogspot.com/2012/02/jumping-jack-flash-hypothesis-its-gas.html

The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.

A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally.
B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species.
C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead.
D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world.
E. More unusual vehicular accidents.
F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

2016-08-21 - Mysterious explosion shakes homes and rattles people at 12:15 AM in and around Hazleton (Pennsylvania):

http://thetimes-tribune.com/news/boom-hazleton-area-abuzz-by-potential-cause-of-sunday-blast-1.2081522

Quote: "While some cite a 'sonic boom,' 'a meteor exploding in atmosphere' or 'a high-tension power line breaking,' the most popular guess points to the ignition of a methane gas pocket at the site of the Jeanesville mine fire, burning underground in Banks Township. Many local residents also cite smelling sulfur — something common in methane-related incidents."

Note: Methane itself - CH4 - contains no sulfur. But some species of ancient anaerobic bacteria and archaea eat methane for food and produce hydrogen sulfide. That's how natural gas gets contaminated with hydrogen sulfide, which is removed during refining. Gas with high levels of hydrogen sulfide is called 'sour gas'. A mysterious explosion and sulfur smell - almost certainly an explosion involving methane AND hydrogen sulfide...
