2018 - JAN - Fires And Explosions 2
2018-01-16 - Mysterious explosions and flashes of light alarm people in Colerain Township (Ohio):
http://www.fox19.com/story/37270673/residents-reporting-loud-booms-rumbling-houses-flashing-lights-in-colerain-twp
Quote: "For Alexis Makstaller, the rumble popped up three days in a row. Each time it was between 1 and 2 a.m. 'Like it felt like it was right outside the wall. It was loud,' Makstaller said. 'I noticed out the window what seemed like a flash of light. The entire laundry room just kind of like shook, and we all just kind of looked at each other like what was that?'"
Quote: "Dozens of people are reporting the same things and have said it's happened repeatedly in recent weeks."
Quote: "Another theory circulating is cryoseisms or 'frost quakes.'"
Note: Frost quakes can be eliminated, obviously, since they don't produce flashes of light...

2018-01-16 - Tractor trailers, escort cars and transport business destroyed by huge fire in Elkhart (Indiana), nobody there:
http://wsbt.com/news/local/breaking-crews-battle-large-building-fire-in-elkhart
http://wsbt.com/news/local/owner-and-employees-react-to-large-business-elkhart-fire
Quote: "A late night fire in Elkhart destroyed a company that transports manufactured housing. Firefighters responded to a call at Tri-State Incorporated about 10:30 p.m. Tuesday to find flames devouring the building. In addition to the building, the company lost many vehicles used to transport the units."
Quote: "He said in addition to the damage caused to the building, they lost at least 17 pieces of equipment that were used to help transport manufactured homes."
Note: You've probably seen big rigs transporting mobile homes on highways before. That's what this business did. So 17 big rigs and escort cars. No idea on the breakdown, so I'll just call it 6 big rigs, which is probably very conservative...

2018-01-19 - Burning hole in the ground found along highway near Torreón (Mexico):
http://strangesounds.org/2018/01/mysterious-burning-crater-baffles-officials-in-mexico-8-meters-meteorite-crater.html
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ocolc_JFis
Quote: "People believe it represents the impact site of a meteorite. However, no pieces have been found yet."
Note: It doesn't look like an impact crater - those have raised edges around the circumference from the earth that was displaced and blown out of the ground by the impact. That looks like the ground ignited from underground and as it burned, the ground subsided. An underground fire burned and a hole opened and swallowed a boy last year in Jharkand (India). Then his dad jumped into the fire after him and neither were ever seen again. That fire was from coal that had ignited and was burning underground. Maybe India's not the only place in the world with coal in the ground. The event where the boy and his father died when a burning hole opened in the ground occurred in May 2017, mentioned in the 2017-05-25 update...

Quote: "Navy Brass said, that it wasn’t fire or accident of any kind, those were firefighting drills. Well, it looks anything but fire drills, but that’s the way of Navy, at least Russian Navy – they confess accident only when cornered. Class of submarine on fire and neighbouring submarines not clear – looks like Kilo, but one docked to the right looks like she’s nuclear."
Quote: "It's very hard to imagine that such a training event would include lighting one of your own submarines on fire, or at least igniting a fire right next to a cluster of submarines sitting vulnerable tied up to a pier."
Note: Hah, yes, very hard to imagine anyone doing that for a training exercise unless they're insane...

Looks like things are getting started even earlier than that this year, although nothing record-setting, yet...

http://edmontonjournal.com/news/local-news/hazmat-crews-respond-to-nitric-acid-explosion-at-u-of-a-lab-no-one-injured
Quote: "Classes at the University of Alberta’s Electrical and Computer Engineering Research Facility were briefly interrupted as the building was evacuated after a nitric acid explosion on Wednesday afternoon."
Note: I've mentioned the nitric acid problem before with previous nitric acid fires and explosions. Nitric acid is a strong acid and dangerous to touch, but it has a flammability index of 0, just like water, and by itself it is not flammable and does not explode. From Wiki: "Flash point: Non-flammable". However, nitric acid is explosively flammable if it comes into contact with gaseous hydrogen sulfide. So if any nitric acid leaks at all and there's any hydrogen sulfide in the air or adsorbed onto materials with which the nitric acid comes into contact, THEN an explosion and/or fire may result...

Quote: "The 2012 truck was in a garage behind Fire Station No. 3, on the Interstate 8 Business Loop near Lake Jennings Park Road. It had gone in for routine maintenance a day earlier, Division Chief John Hisaw said. About 1 p.m., paramedics pulled around the back of the station not far from the repair shop when they smelled, then saw smoke coming from the building. They opened a door and found the cab of the fire truck engulfed in flames, Hisaw said. Firefighters quickly doused the blaze and kept it from spreading beyond the truck. But the truck, worth roughly $550,000, was a total loss, Hisaw said."

2018-01-28 - Smoke from unknown source hits fraternity in coastal Berkeley (California), student has seizure:
http://www.berkeleyside.com/2018/01/28/smoke-no-fire-found-uc-berkeley-fraternity-featured-graduate/
Quote: "Firefighters responded to a UC Berkeley fraternity Sunday and found smoke but no fire. While there, however, a brother in the fraternity had an unrelated medical problem and needed to be taken by ambulance to the hospital, the Fire Department reports."
Quote: "Firefighters found smoke inside a laundry room on the property, but were ultimately unable to find any fire, said Battalion Chief Bill Kehoe of the Berkeley Fire Department. He said sometimes lint or dust in a laundry room can ignite, but then burns up leaving no evidence. Although no fire suppression was needed, the response proved timely. While firefighters were still on scene, one of the fraternity brothers passed out due to a medical issue, Kehoe said. A brother who is an EMT told BFD he believed the young man also had a seizure. As the patient was being walked to the ambulance, he passed out again."
Note: Filters and lint will also adsorb hydrogen sulfide from the atmosphere, and atmospheric gases will leave no trace when they burn too, unless they happen to ignite some matter. That's also much more likely than uncontaminated lint to cause people nearby to lose consciousness, have seizures or drop dead, and that's most likely to happen in coastal areas too, like, say, Berkeley...
