2017-09-04 - Large parts of the western side of North America are burning:
http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2017/09/the-west-is-on-fire.html

Note: I mentioned some time ago that this is how North America would burn, from west to east. That's because of the rotation of the Earth. As the Pacific Ocean spews methane and hydrogen sulfide, the wind blows west-to-east and the gases blow ashore and hit the western coast of North America first, then fires break out. Over time, eventually everything will have burned on the west coast and the fires will spread eastward. That doesn't mean that in the meantime there won't be some serious fires farther east too though. There'll be some of those as well, like the largest fire in Kansas history that erupted before fire season began this year, and the gigantic fires burning in British Columbia in Canada. But overall, the trend will be for larger fires in the west, spreading toward the east as time marches on. We're already seeing that happen. The same scenario is playing out elsewhere too, for example in Portugal, which is sort of like the California of that area of Europe, so Portugal will burn first and hardest, with the fires spreading eastward into Spain, and that's what we saw this year. Another example: the huge fires that have burned in Chile. Chile is sort of like the California of South America, on the west coast. And so on...

No one was hurt, but passengers described tense moments in the cockpit. Delta flight 1057 took off late Tuesday night, bound for New York's JFK airport. About 15 minutes into the flight, passengers noticed the left engine of the Boeing 757 burst into flames. 'There was an orange light glowing from the windows in the back,' said one passenger who asked to remain anonymous. 'The people were yelling, "It's getting worse!" They turned the plane around, thank God.'"

Quote: "On Sep 8, 2017, at 11.30 a.m. a fire broke out on the 'Arctic Wolf' which was docked at a shipyard in Havøysund. The ship owner himself, Steve Arntzen from Napp in Lofoten, discovered the fire in the morning. He had his ship at the yard since June for modernizations, and the works should be completed by the end of September. Arntzen was on the deck and painted as he saw smoke coming from a door from the accomodation block to the main deck. He climbed off the vessel to cool the hull with a water hose, but quickly had to flee due to the fierce smoke and raised alarm."

An Ottumwa Fire Department spokesman says that the truck had been driven just minutes before it caught fire. No one was injured. Firefighters responded to that fire as they were finishing up a car fire on Business 63 near Domino's. In that case, the car caught fire as it was being driven."

Quote: "A string of suspicious car fires in Ottumwa had authorities on alert when two car fires were reported within 30 minutes of each-other in Ottumwa. However, Deputy Fire Chief Cory Benge confirmed that neither of the car fires reported Monday are being treated as suspicious."

'Typically by the third week of September we see not as much fire activity,' said Jessica Gardetto, spokeswoman for the National Interagency Fire Center. 'But we just haven’t had that relief.'"

I heard some fire trucks roaring past my area around that time, so firefighters probably got stretched thin by this trucking business fire and the warehouse fire and had to call in reinforcements from around town...
