Quote: "Locals say they saw flames and smoke as a major bubble of methane blasted below the surface and created another sinkhole in the Russian Arctic peninsula. Reindeer herders in the area of Seyakh, a village on the eastern coast of the Yamal Peninsula in the morning of June 28th reported the incident to the local authorities. They say that they from the distance saw flaring flames and a column of smoke from the area, TASS reports. It is believed that the explosion took place place about 30-40 km from Seyakh."

Quote: "The formation of both craters involved an explosion followed by fire, evidently signs of the eruption of methane gas pockets under the Yamal surface."

Note: These methane domes exploding are going to be like what happens when you cook popcorn. First there's one or two 'popping' then a few more then more, and so on, rising in frequency to a crescendo, then eventually falling again in frequency as there are fewer left TO explode - a bell curve. I highly doubt the human race will be around by the time these methane explosions reach their frequency peak. And as more methane and hydrogen sulfide contaminate the atmosphere, there will be, among other things, problems with planes and other aircraft, with aircraft smoking or igniting or just plain exploding mid-air...

Quote: "The spokesperson initially said that witnesses reported seeing the plane 'explode in the air,' but later said that information didn't appear to be correct. However, the sheriff later verified that information mostly likely is correct. 'Most of the the people are telling us that the plane did come apart in the air, and from what we've found at the scene, that's evidently what's going to have happened,' Langford said."

Note: This is the 62nd aircraft to smoke/burn/explode in 2017...

Quote: "The plane is believed to have exploded in mid-air. Investigators said they found debris on both sides of the highway, leading them to believe an explosion happened prior to the crash."

Quote: "Witnesses said they heard low, rumbling explosions when the plane was still high in the sky, saw the aircraft spiraling toward the flat landscape and spotted an apparently empty parachute floating toward the Earth. Bodies were found more than a mile from the main crash site."

Quote: "Andy Jones said he was working on his family's catfish farm just before 4 p.m. when he heard a boom and looked up to see the plane corkscrewing downward with one engine smoking."

Quote: "The fire chief of Greenwood, Marcus Banks, said that the radius of the debris is 5 miles, according to the Greenwood Commonwealth."

Quote: "Sixteen people are dead following a Marine Corps airplane crash in Mississippi, according to authorities at the crash site."

Note: These are the 64th and 65th aircraft to smoke/burn/explode in 2017...

http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/database/index.php?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=UGE-20170712-58992-MEX
http://www.straitstimes.com/world/americas/underground-explosion-rocks-mexican-town

Quote: "Residents in a sleepy Mexican town fear that a new volcano is bubbling under the ground after an eruption of gas and smoke emerged from a field, local media reported. Cracks have appeared on the ground in Pueblo Viejo in the southern state of Michoacan, with temperatures of some 250 degrees registered in the subsoil. Local residents gathered at the site with preliminary investigations revealing that the cause of the eruption was geothermal activity from an underground swamp. Smoke has been rising from the ground since Sunday and local authorities have set up a security cordon to stop residents from getting close and possibly getting burnt by the high temperatures."

Note: So an underground swamp is burning? That swamp must have some methane and/or hydrogen sulfide in it then, cuz water doesn't usually burn by itself...

http://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/629170/Mystery-black-rings-of-death-emerge-across-globe

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f72ayOTWdS0

Quote: "Baffled eyewitnesses have reported seeing the bizarre circles in several incidents over the past two months. The latest phenomena was spotted in the UK on Sunday afternoon near Birkenshaw, West Yorks, on the M62. The circle resembled a giant smoke ring but West Yorkshire Fire Service said there had been no reports of a fire. The Met Office also confirmed the ring also did not appear to be weather-related."

Note: Those look like carbon remnants of clouds of methane and/or hydrogen sulfide igniting in the atmosphere and burning off in 'flash fires'. If there's enough methane and/or hydrogen sulfide present, then the cloud will auto-ignite, no ignition source necessary - the atmosphere itself bursts into flame. So as the atmosphere is increasingly contaminated with both gases, you'd expect there to be 'smoke rings' like these appearing here and there, and that is happening. This won't always happen way above the ground either. Sometimes it'll happen at ground-level and ignite homes or cars, or start brush fires, or burn people to death, etc. You won't see it coming either, because both gases are invisible...

One firefighter was severely injured. The reason for the explosion wasn't immediately clear."

http://www.mysanantonio.com/news/article/Fire-in-St-Louis-destroys-home-built-by-Mark-11282960.php

Quote: "The Clemens House was built by Mark Twain's uncle, James Clemens, Jr., in 1860. After his death, Clemens’ heirs sold the building to the Sisters of St. Joseph. In 1971 the house was made a St. Louis City landmark."

Quote: "One of the unusual features is the extensive use of cast iron ornament on the front facade. It has been said it is the finest application of cast iron on a residential building outside of New York City."

Quote: "Just before 4 a.m., the James L. Clemens House, a four-story building at 1849 Cass, near Mullanphy and Helen Street, caught fire. The St. Louis Fire Department said wind conditions were creating challenges and there were a number of spot fires from floating embers. The fire reportedly destroyed the building’s roof and a wall."

Quote: "Capt. Mosby said after firefighters were in a position to battle the Clemens House fire, they received a call for another fire about half a mile away at North 15th and Cass. When Fire officials arrived at the two-story building at North 15th and Cass they reported the structure was “fully involved” and they were taking a 'defensive stance.'"

Quote: "Then, just before 5 a.m., firefighters were called to put out a fire at a vacant two-story building in the 1600 block of Helen, which is located down the road from the original fire. After the third fire, officials with the fire department said they requested a fourth alarm to help because there were multiple structural fires in the area."

Note: About a mile from the Mississippi River. Here's a Google Maps link of the area...

Quote: "The blaze broke out in the morning on Thursday, scattering ash onto houses over 15 kilometers (9.3 miles) away and blanketing the north and west of the city, ABC reported. By Friday, the fire had grown to the 'size of a sports field' and 'as high as a factory,' Emergency Services Minister James Merlino told reporters."

Quote: "It's the fourth time the recycling plant has caught fire in recent months, according to local media. Earlier fires this year broke out already in February and June. The plant provides services for a dozen local councils and recycles paper, metal, glass and plastic."

Note: From the full hypothesis: "Trash-related facilities such as recycling centers and landfills will burn hard too, as hydrogen sulfide is absorbed into flammable absorbent materials like wood, paper, cardboard, straw, hay, dried brush, generic trash, clothing, cotton, wool."
