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.

Quote: "Cheverly resident Nikki Greco has taken matters into her own hands by keeping track of the booms, which, according to her, sound like a Mack truck ramming into her house. For Greco, the loud booms are not just inconvenient, but an issue that has begun to dig into her bank account. The phenomenon has reportedly caused large cracks in her basement requiring a $50,000 loan for repairs. 'We're really concerned and we can't afford to keep making repairs,' a frustrated Greco told NBC4."

Quote: "Atmospheric rivers - narrow corridors of concentrated moisture suspended in the atmosphere - were responsible for the mysterious mass die-off of wild Olympia oysters in San Francisco Bay in 2011, scientists have found. This is the first documented case of these 'rivers in the sky' - which can hold 15 times more water than the Mississippi River - directly harming an entire population, and they’re expected to increase in frequency, intensity, and unpredictability as the global climate warms."
Note: What happens when significant amounts of hydrogen sulfide and/or methane in the atmosphere get into those 'rivers in the sky'? Both are water-soluble. Deadly poisonous flaming rivers in the sky? Already had people drop dead after storms - 41 children and some animals in Indonesia, 8 people in Australia, 5 people in Kuwait, all after storms rolled in off the ocean. Things that make you go 'Hmmmm...'

Scientists confirm that warm ocean water is melting the biggest glacier in East Antarctica
http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2016/12/scientists-confirm-that-warm-ocean.html
The measurements, sampling ocean temperatures in seas over a kilometer (0.62 miles) deep in some places right at the edge of Totten glacier’s floating ice shelf, affirmed that warm ocean water is flowing in towards the glacier at the rate of 220,000 cubic meters per second.
These waters, the paper asserts, are causing the ice shelf to lose between 63 and 80 billion tons of its mass to the ocean per year, and to lose about 10 meters (32 feet) of thickness annually, a reduction that has been previously noted based on satellite measurements.
This matters because more of East Antarctica flows out towards the sea through the Totten glacier region than for any other glacier in the entirety of the East Antarctic ice sheet. Its entire “catchment,” or the region of ice that slowly flows outward through Totten glacier and its ice shelf, is larger than California. If all of this ice were to end up in the ocean somehow, seas would raise by about 11.5 feet.

Yeah, I saw the stories about that tweet from Buzz. I couldn't verify that he ever tweeted that at all. Seems fake-ish, and faking a tweet would be pretty easy too. On the other hand, he WAS in Antarctica, and had some kind of medical issue, and there are probably gubment facilities at one or both poles, to manipulate the Earth's magnetic field, for a variety of reasons.

Black ice got me this morning - was in a hurry to get inside and get warm, didn't see the ice, slipped, landed on my ass, hit my head on a brick wall. Not too bad, but bad enough to remind me to pay better attention to black ice henceforth!
