2017-10-25 - 'Smell of gas' hits area in coastal Timaru (New Zealand):
http://www.stuff.co.nz/timaru-herald/news/98255125/smell-of-gas-halts-shopping-on-timarus-main-street
http://www.stuff.co.nz/timaru-herald/news/98255125/smell-of-gas-halts-shopping-on-timarus-main-street

Quote: "Washdyke station officer Trevor Chapman said he suspected the smell had come from the sewers."

Note: So it was probably 'sewer gas', e.g. hydrogen sulfide. It might have blown in off the ocean, like the hydrogen sulfide hitting Huntington Beach and surrounding areas in California, or maybe it blew in off the ocean, infiltrated the sewer system and then came back out. Either way, there's some deadly poison gas blowing around town...

2017-10-25 - Mysterious explosion shakes homes on the Jersey Shore (New Jersey):

http://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/news/shaking-felt-around-the-region/article_afc3db36-4905-5136-b41b-a0d04f1f4578.html

Quote: "A loud boom and shaking sensation was reported throughout Southern New Jersey on Wednesday morning that baffled people from the Shore to Burlington County."

Quote: "Someone who answered the phone at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst said it was possible the cause was a supersonic jet flying off the coast. But they added that MDL does not have jets capable of breaking the sound barrier."

Quote: "But the Navy had no training operations in the area this morning, said Lt. Liza Dougherty, a U.S. Navy spokeswoman."

Quote: "And it wasn't something from the Dover Air Force Base in Delaware, said Dawn Nickerson-Banez, a spokeswoman there. The base does not have supersonic jets."

Quote: "And it likely wasn't a meteorite crashing to Earth, said Harold Connolly Jr., the chair of Rowan University's geology department who studies asteroids and meteorites. He told NJ Advance Media that he hadn't seen any reports of regarding an object falling from space."

Note: Well, now we know all the things it wasn't, but that doesn't leave a whole lot. One thing they haven't eliminated as a cause is an atmospheric explosion, probably of methane. There is enough methane dissociating right off the East Coast there to cause 250,000 ten-kiloton explosions. If it bubbles out of the water, hits the atmosphere, auto-ignites and explodes, nobody would SEE the explosion if it's past the horizon, but they might still hear the sound and feel the explosion shaking the ground. Either way, once that 5 trillion pounds of methane really starts spewing out of the ocean off the East Coast, it's probably not gonna be very fun to be on the East Coast or in western Europe...
