We'll be seeing an uptick in unusual home and business gas explosions and I'm trying to locate specific ZT on the matter.  Below is a refresher for the many gas related news articles.

Fault lines, when adjusting, do not just rip apart one day during a dramatic earthquake. They most often creep. Laying gas lines along or across a fault line is asking for an accident of this sort. Fault lines are also seldom so clearly delineated that one can go a mile in this or that direction and avoid their action. Where a slip-slide fault such as the San Andreas will often leave a clear line on the surface, this is only the surface action, not what occurs in the rock layers on either side which can fracture for a long way to either side during any movement. The gas company, or the age of the pipes, will be faulted but in truth the finger should be pointed in many directions. The public, who insist on living at such a scenic spot, is to blame. Officials, who zoned for housing are to blame. The public utility company, for allowing gas lines in the area, is to blame. But this will change nothing, while man continues to live on the San Andreas, even as it awakens. EOZT

The danger from radon gas will not be increased as a result of the pole shift. Radon gas is emitted by rock containing uranium, which is degrading. In normal circumstances, where air can circulate, it is disbursed rapidly as is any methane created by decay of organic material. The danger from these gasses comes from confinement - being trapped in a mine, a basement, or beneath the permafrost. The dangers are well known. For methane, it is explosions. An accumulation of methane gas can be identified by the smell of rotten eggs, or as some have described it, dirty socks or cabbage soup. For radon gas the danger is lung cancer, from the continual exposure to the radioactive air. Radon gas is odorless, and cannot be detected except by specialized equipment not in the hands of the average person.

In that the pole shift, or the Earth changes preceding the pole shift, can fracture rock and release pockets of either gas, survivors should be cautious about huddling in bunkers. You are safer out in the open air, or in a trench you have dug that will allow the pole shift winds to pass over you, but nothing to fall on and crush you. The fact that both methane gas and radon gas can accumulate in the bunkers of the elite is one of the reasons we have stated that they have dug their own graves. EOZT

Anyone watching the news, for instance the news on the San Bruno explosion in a distribution line close to the San Andreas Fault line, knows that gas in any form is a danger. Oil and gas refineries explode when rigid piping cracks. Oil or gas wells explode when the ground around them moves. And the gas distribution lines running under cities are no exception. They likewise will explode. Gas lines, whether along the street or within a home, are rigid. In some cases automatic shutoff valves can limit the amount of gas available for an explosion by sensing a drop in pressure, but this is always after the fact. The explosion has already occurred. Utilizing gas on a planet prone to earthquakes was a mistake to begin with, but man never thinks of the consequences when striving for modern conveniences. We have advised turning off the gas at the street, though when the street explodes and your neighbor's homes are on fire you are not likely to escape the holocaust. A better alternative is to live in an area where gas is not available, as in your rural safe location where you will be doing a form of camping while gardening. A campfire at night, for cooking and washing and a bit of friendly light before bed. Nothing explosive. EOZT

SOZT Answer: It is no accident that the New Madrid fault lies under the Mississippi River near Memphis, as rivers form in lowlands created when land pulls apart, separating the rock fingers and weakening support for the land. Thus, the Ohio River bed also is an indication of where rock fingers will pull apart. Two adjustments in Kentucky, a day apart, are not an accident, but an indication of the speed at which the stretch zone is starting to adjust. Rail lines are frequently an early harbinger of such adjustments, as they run long distances, whereas structures within cities, such as tall buildings, take up relatively little space and have a small footprint. Our warning that imploding cities will be experienced, before the hour of the shift, are in this regard. Be warmed, it will not just be your rail lines and gas and water mains that will shatter and be pulled apart during the stretch. The foundations of your tall buildings will likewise be vulnerable.EOZT

POINT PLEASANT BEACH, N.J. (AP) — A New Jersey man is hospitalized following a natural gas explosion that rocked his Point Pleasant Beach home.

Police say the 47-year-old man suffered burns over 40 to 50 percent of his body early Monday. He’s reported to be in stable condition at a burn unit in northern New Jersey.

Authorities say the man woke up about 1:40 a.m. and smelled a strong odor of gas. They say he went to the bathroom, turned the light on and the house was rocked by an explosion and fire.

The cause of the blast is under investigation.

It was the second gas explosion at the Jersey shore in less than a week.

Last Tuesday, a natural gas explosion destroyed a home in Stafford Township, injuring 15 people, two critically.

UPDATED: Apparent gas leak, explosion sends crews scrambling in downtown Auburn

APPARENT GAS LEAK, EXPLOSION SENDS CREWS SCRAMBLING IN DOWNTOWN AUBURN

AUBURN | Emergency crews evacuated at least one business and shut off gas in the area of East Genesee Street, Market Street and Seminary Avenue in Auburn after an apparent natural gas leak and explosion that blew several manhole covers off at about 4:15 p.m. Friday.

Firefighters reported a strong odor of natural gas in the area and evacuated The Liberty Store, 5 E. Genesee St., and Speno Music, 3 E. Genesee, as a precaution. The scent of gas was noticed in the basement of both buildings, according to Auburn Fire Chief Jeff Dygert.

Traffic was shut down in the area.

A gas explosion sent multiple manhole covers into the air and has forced the evacuation of two stores on Genesee Street.

Multiple manhole covers were blown off on Genesee Street, starting in front of Hunters Diner and down to the Liberty Store.

The Auburn Fire Department called in NYSEG to turn off the gas. 

Responders could be seen examining the gas level for each open manhole.

The street is closed off between the Loop Road and Owasco Street intersections. People parked on it before the explosion have been asked to move their cars.  

One car appeared damaged from a manhole.

NJ Natural Gas personnel inspect the scene after a natural gas explosion leveled a house after a gas main break in Stafford, N.J. Tuesday, Feb. 24, 2015.

Seven of the injured were gas company workers trying to locate the source of a leak that filled the neighborhood with a strong gas smell.

Two of them were in critical condition at a hospital in Atlantic City.

Six firefighters and two emergency medical service technicians also were injured, sustaining concussion-like symptoms from the shock wave of the blast.

The cause of the 10:32 a.m. explosion has not been determined.

About 300 homes remain without gas service, and some are also without electricity, although authorities say the situation is under control.

Eight die in Loralai coalmine blast

QUETTA: At least eight miners were killed in an explosion in a private company’s coalmine in Duki area of Loralai district, officials said on Friday.

The blast took place on Thursday evening when the miners were working at a depth of about 2,300 feet. The mine is located about 225km northwest of Quetta. The miners were trapped when a portion of the mine caved in and blocked the exit.

According to sources, a fire broke out after the powerful explosion caused by methane gas.

Some miners who tried to rescue their colleagues fell unconscious after inhaling methane gas. One of them died, but the others were rescued and taken to hospital.

Later official rescue teams reached the place, along with a mines inspector. They faced difficulties because of the fire and methane gas. After hectic efforts, they reached the trapped miners but found them dead.

“The bodies were retrieved after hours of hard work,” a rescue official said.

All the victims were from Swat and their bodies were sent there after legal formalities.

The mine has been closed and the chief inspector of mines has ordered an inquiry into the incident.

Toxic orange cloud outside Barcelona after chemical blast (PHOTOS, VIDEO)

Three people were reportedly injured in a chemical explosion in northern Spain, which created a toxic orange cloud. Residents in towns around Barcelona were told to stay indoors. The restrictions were lifted after about four hours.

The accident in northeastern Spain appears to have been caused by two chemicals accidentally mixing while on their way during delivery, the regional government in Catalonia said, as cited by Reuters.

The explosion and fire happened at Simar, a chemical distribution company.

The explosion resulted in a thick orange cloud, which prompted government warnings for residents in nearby towns to stay indoors and shut their windows. Authorities also shut down several roads.

"Unfortunately there isn't much wind in the area so the toxic cloud is taking longer to disperse," the Catalan Interior Ministry's Ramon Espadelar told El Pais.

The six towns are home to thousands of people. Igualada, Catalonia, is still largely engulfed in the orange mist.

One of the two chemicals involved was nitric acid, which is corrosive and toxic.

The explosion took place at 9:00 local time (10:00 GMT) Thursday, according to the daily La Vanguardia.

What led to the chemicals mixing was an accident during the unloading of the trucks. This caused a fire, injuring the people, whose condition is still not known, it reported.

The recommendation to stay indoors was partially withdrawn an hour later, Reuters reports. However, infants and the elderly were advised to be kept indoors in the six towns affected by the cloud.

Spain's emergency services have taken to Twitter, recommending that people remain calm. They discouraged citizens from going outdoors and taking pictures until the containment order is fully lifted.

The containment order was lifted about 13:40 local time (12:40 GMT).

Brazil: At least 3 dead in Petrobras oil platform explosion

Cidade de São Mateus, a floating oil production, storage and offloading ship (FPSO).

At least three oil workers were killed and others were injured in an explosion at an offshore oil and natural gas platform in Brazil operated by state-run energy company Petroleo Brasileiro SA , union officials have said.

The workers were killed in an explosion aboard the Cidade de São Mateus, a floating oil production, storage and offloading ship (FPSO), said Davidson Lombo, finance director of Sindepetro-ES, the union representing workers on the platform.

It was not immediately clear what caused the explosion.

At least four others were injured and six are still missing, Lombo told reporters in an interview from Petrobras headquarters in Vitoria, where he was accompanying rescue and recovery efforts. Petrobras officials were not immediately available to comment.

The Cidade de São Mateus operates in the Camarupim field 75 kilometers northeast of Vitoria, the capital of Brazil's Espirito Santo state, and produced about 2,000 barrels a day of oil as recently as February 2014, according to the latest data available from Brazil's petroleum regulator ANP.

The Cidade de São Mateus is owned by BW Offshore.
