http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWgUA5bKlAo

Quote: "Police are investigating an accident that left a woman hospitalized after her wig caught fire overnight on a D.C. street corner. The incident happened around 3:30 a.m. in the 1200 of Holbrook Street in the northeast. Officers say emergency crews found the woman on the corner of Holbrook and Neal Street suffering from burns. Authorities say the fire spread to others parts of her body causing her to sustain critical injuries. It is unclear what caused the wig to catch fire, however, police say a review of surveillance video confirmed that the incident was accidental in nature."

Note: This sounds similar to the woman who just caught fire at home and burned to death in coastal Bronx (New York), mentioned in the 2016-11-20 update. Or the woman who burst into flame while sitting on a park bench at a beachside park in coastal Flensburg (Germany), mentioned in the 2015-11-05 update. And so on and so on. Lots of people going up in flames this past year, mostly dying but sometimes they live, albeit with grievous burn injuries...

Note: Some fires blamed on arson. Could be. Sounds plausible considering the area. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean that methane and hydrogen sulfide have no effect. Israeli scientists detected hundreds of 'gas springs' bubbling methane from the sea floor off their coast, mentioned in the 2012-11-12 update. That problem has surely gotten worse since then. And in the Gaza Strip, on the coast, gas was filmed spewing from sandy ground earlier this year, mentioned in the 2016-02-08 update. That was likely methane from those seabed eruptions leaking up through the ground along the Gaza Strip. Israel is downwind of all that, so as the methane comes out of the sea and the ground, it blows over Israel and adsorbs onto matter, sort of like dowsing the area with invisible odorless gasoline. Then when fires break out - whether set by arson or not - they burn hotter and spread faster than they otherwise would...

http://www.modbee.com/news/article116892868.html

Quote: "About 3:25 a.m., a call was made reporting a boat on fire at Claus Road and Davis Avenue northeast of Modesto, said Stanislaus Consolidated Battalion Chief Eric DeHart.

The crew drove around the area and saw the glow of the fire, which turned out to be at Big Basin Dog Training & Boarding, at 4554 Claribel Road.

2016-11-25 - Unknown explosion injures 3 women at riverbank in Delhi (India):
http://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/Delhi/3-injured-in-explosion/article9388456.ece

Note: Interesting theory. Don't see any mention of them actually finding a 'bottle bomb' though, so this just looks like another 'mysterious explosion' near a body of water. Did they check that river to see if its spewing methane like the various other rivers that have caught fire in recent times? Nope...
