2017-10-19 - Boat bursts into flame at 5:22 AM while parked at home, fire spreads to home, in Wenatchee (Washington):
http://www.wenatcheeworld.com/news/2017/oct/19/police-to-investigate-house-fire/

Quote: "A fire that began Thursday morning in a boat and then spread to a house has been turned over to Wenatchee police for investigation. 'With no obvious ignition sources, the fire is suspicious in nature,' said Fire District 1 Chief Mike Burnett."

Note: Seeing as the AIR can spontaneously ignite now, not all ignitions are going to have obvious sources. This guy might want to figure out what's going on if he wants to stay alive. Odds are that he won't do either. These are the 916th and 917th boats/ships to burn/explode in 2017...

http://www.sott.net/article/365143-Mysterious-fires-plague-Malaysian-family

Quote: "Six years ago, Zainab Sulaiman and her family claimed to have suffered from 'paranormal activity', including mysterious fires at their home in Kampung Penambang Mas near Pantai Cahaya Bulan. The phenomena lasted for several months, resulting in the former petty trader and her family suffering huge losses, including the destruction of their wooden house and other valuable properties. Though still unable to explain the things that were happening to her family, Zainab was glad when the occurrences stopped. But the 80-year-old and her family are now suffering again, claiming that the paranormal activity began again last month. Zainab claimed unexplained fires again occurred, damaging her house and another belonging to her sister. 'The latest incident happened on Friday. I was at our rental homestay with my daughter Ropeah Zakaria, 50, and her three children, aged between 17 and 21, when suddenly five unexplained mysterious fires started to burn our clothes and prayer mats.'"

Note: On the east (downwind) side of a river near the coast. Here's a Google Maps link of the area. Clothing will adsorb methane and hydrogen sulfide. Once there's enough - and nobody will smell or see methane - then spontaneous combustion can occur. This problem is what's been killing the people who have themselves burst into flame (as opposed to homes or vehicles igniting and killing the occupants). This can happen to anything flammable and porous, like clothes, cardboard, dried wood. There's nothing paranormal about this - it's chemistry and physics...

http://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/news/shaking-felt-around-the-region/article_afc3db36-4905-5136-b41b-a0d04f1f4578.html

Quote: "A loud boom and shaking sensation was reported throughout Southern New Jersey on Wednesday morning that baffled people from the Shore to Burlington County."

Quote: "Someone who answered the phone at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst said it was possible the cause was a supersonic jet flying off the coast. But they added that MDL does not have jets capable of breaking the sound barrier."

Quote: "But the Navy had no training operations in the area this morning, said Lt. Liza Dougherty, a U.S. Navy spokeswoman."

Quote: "And it wasn't something from the Dover Air Force Base in Delaware, said Dawn Nickerson-Banez, a spokeswoman there. The base does not have supersonic jets."

Quote: "And it likely wasn't a meteorite crashing to Earth, said Harold Connolly Jr., the chair of Rowan University's geology department who studies asteroids and meteorites. He told NJ Advance Media that he hadn't seen any reports of regarding an object falling from space."

Note: Well, now we know all the things it wasn't, but that doesn't leave a whole lot. One thing they haven't eliminated as a cause is an atmospheric explosion, probably of methane. There is enough methane dissociating right off the East Coast there to cause 250,000 ten-kiloton explosions. If it bubbles out of the water, hits the atmosphere, auto-ignites and explodes, nobody would SEE the explosion if it's past the horizon, but they might still hear the sound and feel the explosion shaking the ground. Either way, once that 5 trillion pounds of methane really starts spewing out of the ocean off the East Coast, it's probably not gonna be very fun to be on the East Coast or in western Europe...
