2014-11-14 - High school damaged by explosion and fire in coastal Vallejo (California), 2 injured:

http://sacramento.cbslocal.com/2014/11/14/2-injured-in-explosion-at-vallejo-high-school/
http://www.kcra.com/news/2-employees-injured-in-explosion-at-vallejo-hs/29718948

Quote: "VIB has been contacted directly by a local resident and reliable source who personally called both PG&E and the Vallejo Police Department at 5:28 AM reporting a strong natural gas smell on Broadway @ Nebraska near Vallejo High School, the scene of a later natural gas explosion. The citizen who made the call was traveling in a car on Broadway at 25-30 mph through the intersection and was struck by a very strong natural gas smell described as 'overwhelming.'"

Note: Yeah, wee hours, right on the coast, 'rotten egg' odor - I doubt that was natural gas that he smelled. They add mercaptan to natural gas so that it has any smell at all, and that smells like 'rotten eggs'. So does hydrogen sulfide at low concentrations. And methane is coming up out of the ocean and from the ground in places in California too. If you smell 'rotten egg' odor, best to assume it's hydrogen sulfide since assuming it's NOT hydrogen sulfide might get you killed in any number of ways if you're wrong...

Quote: "The flames are sporadically coming up through cracks in the sidewalk. There are also sporadic power outages in the area."

Quote: "The blaze started at about 2:45 p.m. below 36th Street between 23rd and 24th avenues, with some smoke or fire reaching above ground and setting garbage on fire along the street..."

Quote: "Instead, residents saw flames coming up from the ground. 'I thought we were going to blow up,' one man said. 'The fire came from the sidewalk – I was scared,' another man said."

Note: A 2.5 gigaton methane clathrate deposit is dissociating right off the East Coast, with enough explosive force in the methane in that deposit to cause 250,000 ten-kiloton explosions. Responders in NYC just trained to pick up the pieces after a 10-kiloton explosion hits the city and instantly kills 100,000 people, mentioned in the 2014-10-22 update. That's about the maximum explosive force of a very large gas plume...

2014-11-13 - Underground electrical explosion and fire hits coastal London (Britain), again:
http://www.getwestlondon.co.uk/news/local-news/exploding-pavement-causes-rush-hour-8102217

Quote: "Similar pavement explosions have been happening all over London over the past two years, including one in Pimlico Road in April last year which narrowly missed a passer-by."

Note: Say, that's right around the time that scientists began reporting methane erupting from the oceans all over the planet and strange odors and HazMat events started hitting cities and towns all over. That's no coincidence. A heavier-than-air innocuous gas was pumped into the subways in both New York City and London in 2013, to see where a heavier-than-air gas - like hydrogen sulfide - would go once inside the subways in both coastal cities. The NYC subway gas test was mentioned in the 2013-04-26 update and the London subway gas test was mentioned in the 2013-06-14 update...

2014-11-13 - Pallets burst into flame at midnight at Tesco in Northwich (Britain):
http://www.cheshirefire.gov.uk/news-events/incidents/pallets-on-fire-in-northwich

Quote: "Firefighters tackled a blaze involving pallets behind Tesco Express in Northwich.  The crew asked police to attend as it looked like the fire was started deliberately.  Electrical units on the outside wall of the building were also badly damaged."

Note: Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with rusty iron/steel, like the nails and screws that hold pallets together. It's also reactive with copper, especially electrified copper, like that in those electrical units, and in those underground electrical fires, and that's the cause of a lot of the vehicles that have been spontaneously igniting too...

Quote: "A large 'pop' noise awoke one of the residents inside the home at the time and informed the family, he said. Smoke alarms were not going off. The owner of the home saw the family's pick-up truck in flames. The fire spread from the truck to the carport, another car and to the roof of the home."

Note: There's that popping sound again. That's a gas plume finding an ignition source (like that pickup truck) and igniting with a smallish explosion. All vehicles are now randomly-igniting firebombs that can go off at any time, but it's more likely to happen in the wee hours, as with this fire. Parking a vehicle near your home is very dangerous now...

http://www.waff.com/clip/10842849/car-catches-fire-in-chesterfield-familys-driveway

Quote: "A Chesterfield family's car went up in flames and they caught the whole thing on video. But the car was sitting in their driveway and wasn't even running. Now, they're wondering how this could happen. It happened as the family of six was eating dinner inside their home on Rivers Bend Circle. 'We suddenly heard two separate, sounded like, explosions,' Reza Omarzai said. The fire spread quickly. Omarzai says it took 45 minutes for crews to put the flames out. 'It just seems very odd. It's almost like the car spontaneously combust,' Omarzai said."

Quote: ""If we had been asleep with the car parked in the garage, the house would have clearly been destroyed..."

Note: A lot of houses HAVE been destroyed that way and since virtually nobody is aware of the problem, many more homes and businesses and lives will be lost this way going forward. All vehicles are now randomly-igniting firebombs that can go off at any time, whether parked or running...

Quote: "He said the cause of the fire is under investigation and that it appeared to have been smouldering in four separate locations inside the home."

Note: Nothing says that a cloud of hydrogen sulfide can only ignite ONE area. Looks similar to the two boats that went up in flames within 3 minutes in separate marinas in coastal Washington DC, mentioned in the 2014-02-11 update, except this time the fires were in an even more localized area than with those marina fires. There've been other similar incidents.

http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2014/11/10/ford-heights-man-dies-after-cooking-related-fire/

Note: A man in his 50s just burned to death while cooking at home in coastal Providence (Rhode Island), mentioned in the 2014-11-06 update. As the atmospheric contamination intensifies, more peoples' clothing will adsorb methane and hydrogen sulfide, and they will then ignite very easily, especially if they come near any flame, although electronic devices and static electricity may also cause ignition. These fires will burn very hot, making fatalities more common...

2014-11-09 - Person found burned to death at 5:23 AM in burning car in ditch along I-15 in Mountain Pass (California):

http://www.wptv.com/news/region-n-palm-beach-county/palm-beach-gardens/body-found-in-burned-vehicle-in-unincorporated-palm-beach-gardens

Note: The situation is not looking good for people who aren't keen on burning to death. From the full hypothesi: "Vehicles of all kinds will continue to burn, as they have been, and the number of vehicular fires will continue to escalate, inevitably resulting in a corresponding increase in the number of people being incinerated in their vehicles."

Note: A van burned too, but in that case they actually *gasp* have some evidence of arson. The school bus and car, no evidence of arson, so they're just assuming as usual. Competent fire investigators don't make assumptions. This is the 7th school bus to burn in November and the 126th to burn since May 1....

http://www.publicopiniononline.com/local/ci_26898589/fire-chief-garage-fire-may-have-started-from

Quote: "Barnes said firefighters believe the fire started in a motorcycle parked in the garage. When the vehicle caught on fire for unknown reasons, it caught the garage on fire as well."

Note: More parked vehicles going up in flames. All vehicles are now randomly-igniting firebombs that can go off at any time, though they're more likely to ignite in the wee hours and when in, near or downwind of a low-lying area like a body of water, ravine, ditch, canyon, valley, etc. Many homes have been destroyed this way and may people have died this way too. It's increasingly unwise to park a vehicle near anything you don't want to see on fire...

Note: It exploded as soon as he opened the door. He had some propane tanks in there. One or more were probably leaking propane. Usually, in normal times, not a big deal, open the door and the gas dissipates into the air and blows away. If there'd been an ignition source INSIDE the shed then obviously it would have exploded earlier. But there's hydrogen sulfide around now, probably mostly blowing along the ground since it's a heavier-than-air gas, and when he opened that door, he allowed some to flow into the shed. Then it found some rusty iron/steel in there - a shovel, rake, lawn mower, something like that - and then there was a spark and...BOOM!

http://www.8newsnow.com/story/27326024/breaking-news-fedex-plane-makes-emergency-landing-in-las-vegas

Quote: "A FedEx plane made an emergency landing at McCarran International Airport Friday morning after a fire was reported in the cargo area of the jet."

Note: A small plane burst into flame mid-air the day prior, then crashed and exploded near a school in Latty Township (Ohio), killing all three people aboard, mentioned in the 2014-11-06 update. Also see the passenger plane that blew tires at takeoff and at landing on this day, causing the landing gear to collapse and a propeller to tear into the fuselage, in Edmonton (Canada)...

2014-11-07 - Passenger plane cockpit fills with smoke, plane makes emergency landing in coastal Dublin (Ireland):
http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/site/index.php?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=VIV-20141107-45919-IRL

Quote: "A passenger jet was forced to make an emergency landing at Dublin airport after the cockpit filled with smoke. The United Airlines 925 plane, travelling from London's Heathrow Airport to Washington, declared an emergency over the Irish Sea and landed in Dublin at around 6.15 pm, reports the Irish Mirror. According to the Irish Independent, the crew was forced to don their oxygen masks after reporting there was smoke and fumes on the flight-deck and in the forward cabin area."

Note: Welcome to the new normal, where planes are regularly coming down smoking or on fire...

Note: Might've been a scrapper in there who ruptured the gas line. But what ignited the gas? The ignition source was quite possibly the Ghostly Match. We'll be seeing this over and over again as gas lines corrode and leak, inside homes and out in the middle of nowhere. Actually, gas lines have been exploding and burning regularly for some time now, when people are around and when they aren't...

Quote: "The MTA said the incident did not involve a train and that firefighters do not believe that the transformer exploded. But subway riders told Fox 5's Ti-Hua Chang that smoke entered a subway just as it approached the station and that they heard a loud boom."

Note: Loud boom = explosion. If it wasn't the transformer exploding, then what did explode?

Quote: "A Proton Wira Aeroback parked at Selesa Court along Jalan Kobusak here, Friday, caught fire in the latest case of vehicles catching fire."

Quote: "There have been at least seven cases of vehicles bursting into flames reported statewide over the previous months."

Note: They list the vehicle fires. Many were parked vehicles spontaneously combusting. On October 15th, two different vans burst into flame in the same area in Luyang. And it'd be very surprising if vehicles weren't going up in flames in this area, seeing as they're going up in flames everywhere, and there's nothing about Malaysia's atmosphere that makes it any safer than the atmosphere anywhere else. In fact, Malaysia might just be worse off than some places. Malaysia is where Flight MH370 took off from then disappeared, with reports of it being seen ON FIRE in the skies. They've still not found that plane or any of the hundreds of people that were on it...

Note: Getting kinda burny there in the Westlake area of coastal Los Angeles. The bookstore fire was apparently sometime around 11 PM, so it was probably closed, as was the church. People really need to keep someone on guard duty 24 hours per day now unless they want to see their building(s) burn down. A lot of these fires probably start small, but if nobody is there to notice then it only takes a few minutes for a small fire to become huge...

Note: Cars in garage, fire started in garage, fire probably started in a car. I wouldn't be parking any kind of vehicle in an attached garage these days unless you've got a hankerin' to be homeless...

2014-11-06 - School bus bursts into flame on street somewhere:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yryh3SD2T-Y

Quote: "This happened in the morning on 5th November, with the Bus full of students (girls) going to school. School management absolutely mum on the incident, when questioned why they did not inform the parents about the accident, their response was they did not want to create a 'panic' among the parents. Is the School not obligated to inform parents? is this just another minor event like a tire puncture or non functional a/c."

Note: I won't count this one, because I can't find anything else about it, and can't figure out where it happened, but I have no doubt that it DID happen. Bonus school bus fire! Sounds like this school bus burned somewhere in the Middle East and it also sounds like there's some news-suppression going on, which isn't too surprising. Gotta keep the herd calm while they die...

Next thing ya know, they're gonna realize that all the cars that have been going up in flames, especially in the wee hours and especially near coasts and rivers and lakes, weren't caused by arsonists at all and they just have oblivious fire investigators who are too ignorant of what's happening to competently do their jobs...

Note: Luckily it was the semi tractor that burst into flame this time and the driver disconnected the tank, else there might be a huge-ass crater in the highway there.

Anyway, here's some of the more notable vehicular fires for this day. Clearly the vehicular fires are worsening with each passing day. Eventually there will be no vehicles left, or at least none that are made with steel or which use electrified copper or which use friction for braking and have flammable tires. Virtually all vehicles have at least one of those vulnerabilities, and most vehicles have all three...

Note: Only suspected arson because it was a parked vehicle. Clearly they are completely oblivious to all the parked vehicles spontaneously igniting around the world. British people might wanna hire more competent and observant fire investigators before they're all dead. And if not, well, it was nice knowing you, Britain!

Note: About 2 miles from me. I hadn't realized how close I am to the River Des Peres. It's nowhere near as big as the Mighty Mississippi, of course, but still, it's a river, which means it's flowing through a low-lying area. Some very good Italian restaurants in this area. Come for the Ferguson riots, stay for the Italian food!

http://www.turnto10.com/story/27320105/police-victim-apparently-caught-fire-while-cooking

Note: If your clothes adsorb methane and/or hydrogen sulfide and you get near a flame, you may burn to death. Static electricity might ignite you too, or any electronic device (electrified copper). There've been numerous mysterious fire deaths, including couples burning to death in cars, a woman burning to death on her porch while having a cig, a woman burning to death on a porch swing, other people burning to death while cooking, and so on. You MIGHT smell hydrogen sulfide (but shouldn't count on that), but methane is completely odorless, so there's really no way to tell if your clothes have been contaminated with methane or not, although such contamination is more likely to happen outdoors. But then if you go inside and start cooking, you might REALLY start cooking...

Quote: "The Wednesday morning blaze is the fourth barn fire in the county in the last three days, dispatchers said. Crews were called to the latest fire at 5:09 a.m. along 7600 block of Valley View Lane in Antrim Township, according to county dispatchers."

Quote: "According to report on the Chambersburg Public Opinion on Tuesday, the fires have made those with farms in the area 'skittish.'"

Note: Barnmageddon has been hitting this area hard. Authorities are getting boxed in here. If they say all the fires are arson then they have to explain why they're too incompetent to catch the arsonists destroying peoples' property. If they say it's NOT arson then people are left wondering why their stuff keeps mysteriously going up in flames...

Note: Bunch of lakes all around this area, including one less than 1000 feet away. This is what we should expect to see as the atmospheric methane and hydrogen sulfide plumes become larger, more numerous and more concentrated as time goes on. Eventually it won't just be a couple of homes igniting, but dozens, then hundreds, then entire towns and cities. You probably won't be able to flee in vehicles by then either, because they'll be burning too...

Note: Not deliberately lit. They SUSPECT it was deliberately lit, but they mention no evidence that supports their assumption. Obviously, anyone ignorant of the atmospheric contamination problem who is also completely oblivious to all the parked vehicles that are spontaneously igniting around the world, especially in the wee hours, is apt to make errors, so you have to take their word with a bag full of salt...

Quote: "A neighbor and friend, who did not give her name, said the fires have made those with farms in the area 'skittish.'"

Quote: "Bigler said Pennsylvania State Police fire marshals are investigating the cause of the fire, and whether the Quarry Road fire is related to the other two barn fires in recent days: One at Fisher Farms, 1153 Geibs Road in Peters Township, that reportedly killed 19 calves, and another at Ryder's Welding and Backhoe at 3959 Warm Spring Road reported earlier Tuesday morning."

Note: Dunno that they're connected in any other way, but they definitely share the same atmosphere, which is definitely getting more flammable and explosive and that's definitely causing more fires and explosions...

Quote: "Its cause was still under investigation as of Monday morning, although Annette L. Mullen, a Wheatfield Township supervisor, said there was some early suspicion the fire may have been intentionally set. 'You can form your own opinion, but there's no electricity [running] on that bridge,' Mullen said."

Note: Yeah, but there was rusty iron/steel. This was an old late 1800s-era wooden covered bridge, so I'm sure some of the nails and bolts holding all that wood together had some rust. Wee hours, rust present, body of water right there, fire, doesn't look suspicious. Looks like what passes for 'normal' these days. The largest covered bridge in Asia, the Feng Yu Covered Bridge, was also destroyed by a humongous inferno, in Chongqing (China), mentioned in the 2013-11-30 update. It was also primarily wood...

Quote: "Two boats caught fire and sank in Henderson's Wharf Marina in Baltimore early Monday morning. According to Coast Guard officials, watchstanders received a report at approximately 3:30 a.m., that a boat in Belts Wharf Landing Yacht Club caught fire and drifted across the harbor into Henderson's Wharf Marina. It hit a second boat, which also caught fire."

Note: Last year the water in the Inner Harbor suddenly turned milky green-white, all the fish died, and a 'rotten egg' odor was in the air, in Baltimore, mentioned in the 2013-07-18 update. That was the chemocline rising abruptly to the surface, smothering all the fish and releasing methane and hydrogen sulfide that had accumulated at the bottom into the air. Shortly after that, an anomalous number of people started being found dead in the water in the Inner Harbor. No coincidence...

http://news.yahoo.com/pickup-trucks-tractor-trailers-catch-112501700.html

Quote: "Three tractor trailers completely incinerated. Four other big rigs were badly damaged."

Note: They suspect arson but only because it was four vehicles that burned in one fire and three in a second fire. I guess they're unaware that gas plumes aren't restricted to one pile of trucks. This event seems quite similar to the two boats that burst into flame within 3 minutes in separate docks in coastal Washington DC, mentioned in the 2014-02-11 update. There've been quite a few similar incidents too, where multiple vehicles have gone up in flames while separated by enough distance that one fire didn't directly cause the other, sometimes running, sometimes parked. And who knows, maybe they'll actually cough up some of that stuff - what do they call it? - oh right, EVIDENCE. So far, they ain't got none of that, and I'd have to be pretty dumb to accept arson proclamations that are lacking any evidence and based entirely on ignorance...

2014-11-03 - Tractor trailer and trucking business destroyed by fire near Delaplain (Kentucky):
http://www.news-graphic.com/breaking_news/article_f2d9a13c-63b6-11e4-96cc-ebb5a483373e.html

Quote: "The call came in of an explosion inside the building, said Craig Wink of the Scott County Fire Department. An employee of the company said workers had swept up and were closing shop for the day when the popping noise was heard. In short order the building was completely engulfed in flames, Wink said."

Note: There's that popping sound again, heard right before many fires in the past coupla-three years. That's the sound of smallish atmospheric gas plumes igniting, causing small explosions and igniting whatever's nearby that's flammable. When the gas plumes are larger then they cause those gigantic neighborhood-shaking explosions that people have been reporting around the world in recent times, sometimes accompanied by a 'flash of light' if the explosion is high enough off the ground for people to see, and anyone's around to see it. Responders just trained to deal with a 10-kiloton explosion in coastal New York City, mentioned in the 2014-10-22 update. That's about the maximum explosive force of a very large gas plume. Not coincidentally, a methane clathrate deposit now dissociating off the East Coast not far from NYC contains enough methane to cause 250,000 such 10-kiloton explosions, around 2,500,000,000 tons of methane. If the wind should blow west instead of east at the wrong time, cities on the East Coast could be obliterated without warning by such explosions, with an estimated 100,000 people being instantly killed by each such explosion if they hit densely-populated areas...

http://www.insidetoronto.com/news-story/4957394-elderly-couple-found-dead-after-fire-in-their-dixon-and-martin-grove-home/

Quote: "An 80-year-old man and 76-year-old woman were found inside a bedroom without vital signs. Investigators believe they were sleeping when the fire started. Causes of death have not been released. The cause of the blaze, which was put out around 4 a.m., has not been determined."

Note: Maybe unconscious, not sleeping. Most sleeping people wake up and leave when fire breaks out. Unconscious people don't. That's why a young engaged couple burned to death in their SUV in McFarland (Wisconsin) last year, mentioned in the 2013-01-01 update - they didn't get out because they must have been struck unconscious at the same time that their vehicle burst into flame, in the wee hours. Lots of people are dying that way now because hydrogen sulfide will not only knock you out (if it doesn't flat-out kill you), it will also ignite fires...

http://sansaka.com/ja/archives/61223
http://www.facebook.com/JapanToday/posts/939809112713083

Quote: "Media reported that a 19-year-old man accidentally spilled about 10 liters of gasoline into the drainage ditch while working on his motorbike. Police believe the gasoline was somehow ignited and then exploded creating a force powerful enough to lift the heavy manhole covers off the ground. An eyewitness told reporters that the sight was unbelievable, like something out of a movie."

Quote: "According to police, the manhole covers started blowing at around 3:30 p.m. in the residential district of Yutakacho. TV Asahi reported that every manhole cover for 200 meters was blown off."

Note: LMAO, sorry, 10 liters of gas doesn't have that much explosive force or all the car fires that are occurring would be blowing big-ass craters in the ground. This was methane and hydrogen sulfide; there is no other plausible explanation. Maybe there was a 10-liter gas spill TOO, but that isn't what provided the vast majority of the explosive force here. This looks similar to the massive underground explosions and fires that hit the city of Kaohsiung at midnight on the island of Taiwan in late July, mentioned in the 2014-07-31, although those explosions and fires killed dozens and injured hundreds. I wonder what they'll say the next time this happens. 'Man drops Bic lighter down drain, half of Tokyo destroyed by butane explosion!' 'Japanese scientists test sewer-based propulsion system, launch manholes in first test flight!'

2014-11-02 - Home damaged by explosion in Savar (Bangladesh), 4 injured:
http://www.thedailystar.net/4-children-injured-in-explosion-48679

Quote: "According to Abu Zahid, Zara's father, the children were playing during the blackout on Saturday when they noticed a bad smell, like something had died, emanating from the bathroom. When they opened the bathroom door, there was an explosion, he claimed. The children were admitted to Enam Medical College Hospital."

Note: Bad smell from the bathroom and then an explosion? That had to be hydrogen sulfide and probably methane infiltrating the home via the sewer. A woman was gassed to death by hydrogen sulfide in her home when her sewer trap malfunctioned and hydrogen sulfide flowed into her home in Kansas City (Kansas), mentioned in the 2013-07-04 update. This area in Bangladesh was experiencing a blackout when this occurred, so it's possible that some kind of sewer pumps failed and allowed methane and hydrogen sulfide into this home. They're very lucky to be alive...
