Event Update For 2018-07-17

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.

Quote: "According to the Bristol County District Attorney's office, 14-year-old Eddiel Benitez and his friend, a 13-year-old girl, jumped into the pond from a rocky ledge around 12:45 p.m. and immediately showed signs of distress."

Note: So they were fine out of the water, but began having problems immediately after entering the water. It's like the people who are diving into water and just disappearing, without even surfacing once. How does that happen? How is that even possible? The only way that's possible is if they dive into the water and immediately lose consciousness or die and then exhale all the air in their lungs, losing buoyancy. Hydrogen sulfide is a 'knockdown agent', known for its ability to immediately knock a person unconscious or dead, and it is water-soluble. Jump into contaminated water and you can instantly die. Or maybe you'll just lose consciousness, exhale air, breathe in water and die that way. The easiest way to tell if water is contaminated is to jump in. If you don't die or have a 'medical event' or seizure then the water was okay...

http://www.thewestmorlandgazette.co.uk/news/16357972.skywatch-keep-an-eye-on-the-sky-for-a-jaw-dropping-spectacular/
http://www.sott.net/article/391334-English-astronomer-reports-photographing-more-noctilucent-clouds-in-past-six-weeks-than-last-three-years

Note: SOTT asks, "Are noctilucent clouds increasing because of the cooling climate, and the rise of fireball and volcanic activity?" Actually, no, the increase in noctilucent clouds is because a rising amount of methane is entering the atmosphere due to the WARMING climate. The methane then rises high into the atmosphere and breaks down into carbon dioxide and water, and it is this rising amount of upper atmosphere water vapor that is causing the increase in noctilucent clouds in recent years, concurrent with the rising amount of methane in the atmosphere, as mentioned just this month in the 2018-07-02 update...
