Event Update For 2018-01-08

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.

2018-01-08 - Unknown 'gas smell' closes school early in Stonington (Connecticut):
http://www.wfsb.com/story/37216631/students-at-one-stonington-school-dismisses-early-due-to-smell-of-gas

Quote: "Students at one Stonington school were dismissed early on Monday morning because someone reported smelling gas in the building."

2018-01-08 - Unknown stench hits the center of Nottingham (Britain):

http://en.brinkwire.com/80006/it-smelt-like-an-abattoir-mystery-surrounds-city-centre-stench/

Quote: "Mystery surrounds a ‘gross’ smell that affronted shoppers in Nottingham City Centre this afternoon. People in the centre reported smelling something 'like a nasty lavatory' while they were out shopping at about 2pm today, January 8."

Quote: "Darren Saywell, 52, of Chesterfield, who smelt it on Clumber Street, said: 'It smelt dreadful, like bad eggs. I am a plumber so I'm used to bad smells but that got me.'"

2018-01-08 - Mysterious massive explosion and flash of light at 12:22 AM reported across huge distance in Russia:

http://endtimeheadlines.org/2018/01/mysterious-bright-flash-and-ground-shaking-explosion-over-russia/

Quote: "A very bright flash was seen over thousands of kilometers over Russia around 00:22 local time January 7, 2018 (20:22 UTC, January 6). The flash was followed by a ground-shaking explosion."

Quote: "Russian officials and scientists immediately denied there had been a Russian missile test or any reported space rock crashing to earth."

Quote: "The phenomenon which bore a similarity to a nuclear flash was seen and felt over thousands of miles in Russia."

Note: Not a missile and not a meteor - that leaves an atmospheric gas explosion, probably very high in the atmosphere to be seen and felt across such a distance. When big clouds of methane and/or hydrogen sulfide explode, they may have the explosive power of small nuclear bombs, similar in explosive force to the fission bomb that destroyed Hiroshima, but minus any radiation. Once atmospheric explosions start destroying large populated areas - which could begin at any time - then I'd think people will wake up to what's happening, although the first few times that it happens it may be blamed on terrorism, and people will probably buy that story. For a while, anyway. This area, in the far northern latitudes, is where the highest concentrations of methane are in the atmosphere...

Note: Trump owns a lot of coastal properties. All of that stuff will eventually be destroyed. His stuff isn't any more immune to the ongoing extinction event than anyone else's. Ironically, with some of his executive orders as pertains to pollution, he's hastening the destruction of his own properties and the deaths of his own children and grandchildren, along with the destruction of everyone else's property and the death of everyone on the planet, of course...
