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: "A man's drive through Ashland turned into a fiery nightmare. Police say witnesses near the Ashland Mall reported seeing a van smoking as it was travelling north on U.S. 23. 'The vehicle became engulfed in flames,' Ashland Police Chief Todd Kelley said. 'The individual was unable to get out.' Witnesses also reported hearing an explosion near the River Hill Drive entrance where the van ended up. 'The callers reporting to 911 were indicating the individual was on fire,' Kelley said. The chief says a Good Samaritan driving by stopped and pulled the victim out of the burning van before emergency responders arrived. Kelley says if the brave passerby hadn't stepped in, the victim almost certainly wouldn't have had a chance."

Startin' May off with a bang, Jonny! First off, great job on the summary stories, pictorials and such. So much destruction, jeez!
ReplyDeleteThere's always interesting stories presented daily here, and the two that caught my eye today were the double incidents in DE (two homes on fire) and the Peoria, IL medical call/car fire in the same neighborhood (blocks apart). That's the kind of JJFH incidents that should raise eyebrows. As things continue to degrade, we'll see more and more of these occurrences. Jonny predicts that entire towns will go up in flames (and that's already happened) or way too many people will drop dead to be "coincidence." Recently, i had a vision of a large number of "natural catastrophes" happening at the same time all over the globe.
As we see daily now, economic conditions are deteriorating, the ability to grow food is increasingly becoming problematic and climate related disasters are ramping up exponentially.

I Dare You To Tell Me The Economy Is “Booming” After Reading This List Of 19 Facts About Our Current Economic Performance
http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/i-dare-you-to-tell-me-the-economy-is-booming-after-reading-this-list-of-19-facts-about-our-current-economic-performance
. . as you will see below, the latest numbers are clearly telling us that the U.S. economy is not even moving in the right direction. Economic conditions are getting worse, and they weren’t that great to begin with. According to the calculations that John Williams has made over at shadowstats.com, the U.S. economy is already in a recession, but of course the Federal Reserve will continue to tell us that everything is just fine for as long as they possibly can. Unfortunately for them, they can’t hide the depressingly bad numbers that are coming in from all over the economy, and those numbers are all telling us the same thing. [more]

China's African swine flu outbreak spreads, 'will move markets and influence geopolitics for years to come'
ReplyDeletehttps://www.sott.net/article/412263-Chinas-African-swine-flu-outbreak-spreads-will-move-markets-and-influence-geopolitics-for-years-to-come
A minor outbreak of African swine fever among some 400 pigs in Shenyang in northeastern China is now threatening the global food supply chain and may increase pork prices for years.
Despite a mass cull, a blockade to prevent any further transmission and a government declaration that the outbreak of the particularly nasty strain of swine fever had been "effectively controlled," China, the country with half of the world's pigs, failed to stop the spread of the disease in time. Domestically, this contagion is already massive: China has a $128 billion pork industry and is third-highest global consumer of pork.
In the truest sense of the word, the outbreak has already gone viral, spreading to Mongolia, Vietnam, Cambodia and farther afield. The strain of African swine fever kills virtually every pig it infects with a bloody death reminiscent of Ebola, although it is not known to infect humans. [more; just wait]

Cyclone Fani, one of the biggest storms to come off the Indian Ocean in recent years, slammed into India on Friday, tearing down trees, blowing away food stands and cutting off power and water. [see 1 min. video]
Fani was expected to barrel northeastwards into West Bengal state and towards Bangladesh, on a trajectory that will take it over the homes of 100 million people.
The monster weather system, which threatened to bring a dangerous storm surge that could flood low-lying areas, was packing winds of up to 180 kilometres (110 miles) an hour as it ripped into the country's east coast. [more; stay tuned]

http://strangesounds.org/2019/05/how-many-volcanoes-have-the-potential-to-trigger-devastating-tsunamis-like-lately-anak-krakatau.html
An international team of researchers from the United States, the UK, and Indonesia has developed the first detailed computer model to represent the eruption of the Anak Krakatau volcano in an effort to better understand how the catastrophic event occurred. The model simulations have revealed that there are 40 volcanoes worldwide that have the potential to initiate a deadly tsunami comparable to the one triggered by the eruption of Anak Krakatau. [more]
