Quote: "Because of the amount of damage, the State Fire Marshal's Office is investigating. Investigators said Monday the fire remains 'a mystery' because they said there was no heat source, no ignition source and no one was working in the tank at the time the fire started."

Note: Now that more flammable gases are contaminating the atmosphere, the atmosphere itself is an ignition source. If there was anything rusty near this tank, like maybe even the tank itself, then that too is now a possible ignition source. Because fire investigators have no idea what's going on, they can't be expected to be competent at performing their job anymore, so they'll be 'baffled' by endless 'mysteries' until they wake up or they're dead, whichever comes first...

Quote: "At least 187 people, including 23 children, have been injured. The number of missing individuals is still unclear."

Quote: "Desperate families trying to reach the safety of the sea were trapped by walls of smoke and flame. Others died in buildings or cars."

Quote: "All the casualties appeared to be from the fire near Rafina, a popular seaside area that is a mix of permanent residences and vacation homes."

Quote: "For only the fourth time in a decade, the nation's top wildland fire managers have moved the gauge of the nation's wildfire situation to its highest - and most dire - level."

Quote: "The blaze leveled at least 125 homes, leaving neighborhoods smoldering and 37,000 people under evacuation orders. The flames moved so fast that firefighters working in oven-like temperatures and bone-dry conditions had to drop efforts to battle the blaze at one point to help people escape."

Quote: "According to Cal Fire, the Carr Fire has grown to 48,312 acres and is now 5 percent contained. 500 structures have been destroyed, 75 have been damaged, and 4,978 are threatened. Two firefighters have been killed in the fire."

Quote: "The fire, which created at least two flaming tornadoes that toppled trees, shook firefighting equipment and busted truck windows, took 'down everything in its path,' said Scott McLean, a spokesman for Cal Fire, the state agency responsible for fighting wildfires."

2017-07-31 - Wildfires becoming increasingly devastating in California as the world warms:
http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/california/la-me-fires-heat-20180731-story.html
http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2018/07/the-common-thread-in-california.html
http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-fires-heat-20180731-story.html

Quote: "The northern Sacramento Valley was well on its way to recording the hottest July on record when the Carr fire swept into town Thursday. It was 113 degrees, and months of above-average temperatures had left the land bone-dry and ready to explode. Within a few hours, hundreds of structures were lost and six people killed. The destruction adds to California’s worst wildfire year on record — dozens dead since October, with more than 10,000 structures lost from San Diego to Redding. There are many reasons for the grim totals, but experts say one common denominator connects the disastrous fires: California is facing extreme heat, the likes of which it has never seen in the modern historical record."

Note: The temps have risen everywhere, so why is it the US West Coast that's really getting slammed by wildfires, far more than any other area in the US? Because that area is directly downwind of the Pacific Ocean. All of the cities that have been mysteriously hit by hydrogen sulfide and which have formed 'investigatory committees' have been in California and multiple 'ocean outgassing' events have occurred on the coast in California. As the oceans turn anoxic and spew methane and hydrogen sulfide, both highly flammable, the gases tend to blow eastward because of the rotation of the planet, so the western coasts of land bodies will tend to burn first and hardest. In the US that's California, Oregon and Washington. Which states are burning the hardest? California, Oregon and Washington. The western coasts of Croatia, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and Chile - at least - have all burned similarly. That's not a coincidence, that's a consequence...
