http://nbc25news.com/news/local/acid-explosion-at-machine-tool-and-gear-in-corunna
Quote: "Matthies said there was a reaction with the company's nitric acid that caused a 55 gallon steel barrel to split."
Note: Nitric acid is non-flammable, like water. (Harmful to breathe or touch though.) It is, however, explosively reactive with gaseous hydrogen sulfide. A tanker ship carrying nitric acid went up in flames near coastal Ulsan (South Korea) in March, mentioned in the 2015-03-14 update. A cargo ship carrying nitric acid exploded and burned while moored near Ulsan in January too, mentioned in the 2015-01-11 update. That drum must not have been sealed very well and some hydrogen sulfide gas must have blown by and made contact with the nitric acid and caused the reaction that ruptured the drum. It couldn't have been a whole lot of hydrogen sulfide though, or there'd probably just be a crater here now instead of a ruptured drum...

Quote: "'Flames were in and around some electrical fixtures, like landscaping lights, and mulch and a corner of the porch,' said Fire Chief Matt Hartigan on Friday."
Note: Hydrogen sulfide is reactive with copper, especially electrified copper. All of the electrified copper that ignited fires at this home was outdoors too, fully exposed to the atmosphere. This problem is also, at least in part, why so many vehicles are bursting into flame. (Rust is another problem with vehicles igniting, and so is the brake-friction problem for vehicles in motion, as hydrogen sulfide and/or methane adsorb onto/into tire rubber and brake pads.)

http://www.wfaa.com/story/news/2015/12/04/homicide-investigation-underway-after-body-found-in-burning-car/76781510/
Quote: "The Ennis Fire Department responded at 3:38 a.m. to what was originally dispatched as a grass fire in the 1000 block of South Preston Street, and discovered a car fire instead, said Chad Wester, the Ennis Fire Marshal. He added a vehicle fire that early in the morning seemed unusual."
Note: Vehicles have been regularly going up in flames in the wee hours for years now, parked or driven, so a vehicle fire that early in the morning seems relatively normal now, not unusual. Scroll through the list of people who have burned to death in recent times, many in their vehicles, and you'll see that the wee hours are frequently when that occurs. The wee hours are when the atmosphere cools and contracts, which will push any methane and/or hydrogen sulfide in the air above closer to the ground, making fires, explosions and animals and people sickening and/or dying more common during those hours...

Note: Technically 29 of them are missing and feared dead. But it's been two days, so they're very likely dead because if they weren't then if they were in the water then they'd have been spotted, and if they were on the rig then they would have made some noise...

Note: So possibly a $2 million car fire here...

2015-12-14 - 96-foot Christmas tree goes up in flames just after 6:30 AM at plaza in coastal Costa Mesa (California):
http://abc7chicago.com/news/fire-destroys-96-foot-christmas-tree-in-calif/1122142/
http://abc7.com/news/fire-tears-through-christmas-tree-outside-costa-mesa-hotel/1122064/
http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2015/12/14/south-coast-plazas-90-foot-christmas-tree-destroyed-in-fire/
Note: Notice that the three big fires here - the burning parking lot, the huge substation fire and the Christmas tree - all occurred in the wee hours and in coastal communities. That's not a coincidence; it's a pattern that's been repeating over and over again in recent years. The wee hours are when the atmosphere cools and contracts, which will push any methane and/or hydrogen sulfide in the air above closer to the ground, making fires, explosions and animals and people sickening and/or dying more common during those hours...

State, was considered a "complete loss" after the explosion ripped through it just after midnight, said Sandy Fire Marshal Robert DeKorver. The explosion was so big that some police officers at the Sandy Police Department, located a couple of blocks west of the restaurant, heard it before they were dispatched to it."
