Event Update For 2018-08-04





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.

  1. Holy Smoke, Jonny - the wildfire list grows in number and area daily, while homes, barns, and vehicles continue burning.

    Mendocino fire racing at unprecedented speed into the record books
    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/mendocino-fire-racing-at-unprecedented-speed-into-the-record-books/ar-BBLy6rV

    he massive Mendocino Complex fire jumped across at least four creeks, one major road and a fire line cut by a bulldozer in a single six-mile run this weekend toward Leesville, a tiny unincorporated way station in Colusa County.
    Typically, any one of those breaks could have halted the spread of wildfire. But shifting winds and brittle-dry vegetation sent flames - up to 300 feet high in some areas - leapfrogging in all directions in three Northern California counties and on both sides of scenic Clear Lake, past these man-made and natural obstacles. The erratic conflagration has chewed through more than 266,000 acres and 68 homes in 10 days, making it the fourth-largest wildfire on record in California.

    It was expected to become the third-largest by Monday morning, and fire officials say it could easily climb to the top of the list, surpassing the Thomas fire that burned 281,893 acres in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties in December. [more]

    Arctic sea ice is MUCH thinner than the previous sea ice extent record in 2012

    Reflections on the Arctic sea ice melt - 08/05/2018
    http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2018/08/arctic-sea-ice-is-much-thinner-than.html

    Could the Arctic have ice-free summers in our lifetime?
    http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2018/08/establishment-science-predicts-ice-free.html

    A study published Monday said if the world warms 7.2 degrees this century, the Arctic will likely have a three-month, ice-free period each summer by 2050. It would be a worst-case scenario never seen in recorded human history.

    By the end of the century, the ice-free summer could jump to five months a year, the study said. [more; 2050, yeah right . .]

    The U.S. Government To Fork Out A Half Trillion To Service Its Debt In 2018
    http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2018/08/us-govt-will-fork-out-half-trillion.html

    The U.S. Government is going to surpass another significant milestone this year. According to the recently released data from the TreasuryDirect.gov, the government will fork out a stunning half trillion dollars just to service its debt in 2018. Unfortunately, as U.S. interest rates rise, along with ever-expanding public debt, the cost to service the debt will continue to increase.

    In just the first nine months of the year, the U.S. interest expense has increased by an additional $40 billion. Last year, the U.S. Government paid only $375 billion to service its debt from October to June, but this year it has jumped to $415 billion [more]

    Earth Changes Accelerate: What Is Causing These Record Heatwaves, Massive “Firenadoes”, Giant Dust Storms And Large Earthquakes?
    http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/earth-changes-accelerate-what-is-causing-these-record-heatwaves-massive-firenadoes-giant-dust-storms-and-large-earthquakes

    Something truly dramatic appears to be happening to the globe, and it isn’t just because the amount of carbon dioxide in the air suddenly reached some sort of magical “tipping point”. But without a doubt, temperatures are getting warmer.

    Yes, the amount of carbon dioxide in the air is increasing, and it has been increasing for a very long time. Ultimately, the amount that humans contribute to the overall level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is marginal [more; more denier b.s., he has no idea about atmospheric chemistry]

    California's fires are creating another problem: Fleeing insurers
    https://www.cbsnews.com/news/california-wildfires-property-insurers-cancel-policies-because-of-risk/

    Residents of U.S. towns damaged by wildfires may need to prepare for another repercussion: insurers that decide to cancel policies because of increased risks from more frequent fires.
    Facing mounting losses, some property insurers are pulling back from selling policies in California and other western states where wildfire risk is elevated. In California alone, damages had mounted to at least $12 billion by early 2018, while the state's Carr fire likely added another $1.5 billion in insured losses.
