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

London Again:

Watch your step! Exploding manhole cover on north London street leads to massive power cut

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2796941/watch-step-explodin...

The pavement of a busy London street suddenly 'exploded' into flames last night, shocking residents who had to be led to safety.

A 'huge' fireball burst through a manhole cover on Holloway Road, Islington, north London, after electrical wires became caught in the hole.

Police cordoned off the road while firefighters evacuated homes, helping five people to escape from the smoke.

One woman was treated for smoke inhalation after the blast which knocked out power in the area.

Witnesses spoke of their fear and confusion after smoke and flames started rising from the road at around 10pm.

Jessica Farley said: 'Pavement just exploded outside my flat on Holloway road. Smoke everywhere and a complete power cut. Loads of fire engines and road blocked.'

Kay Lockett tweeted: 'The pavement just exploded outside my flat. No power on Holloway Road. Sat in the dark.'

Another shocked witness, using the name @supreme-nelle on Twitter, said: 'Powercut on my road & some of holloway road because some electrically wires went on fire... The fire was huge! There's no electricity.'

Natural Gas Explosion Sends Flames Shooting into the Sky

 
(PHOTO: courtesy Global News)
 
Flames erupted Saturday morning near Prud'homme when a natural gas release caused a fire at a storage cavern wellhead.
 
It happened at the TransGas Natural Gas Storage Facility northeast of Saskatoon. No one was hurt in the incident however evacuations were ordered within a 2 kilometre radius.

Saskpower says the facility has been isolated from the natural gas transmission system. The crown utility shut down and isolated six caverns at the site. The fire continues to burn natural gas from the affected cavern wellhead. First Responders remain on site.
 
In the meantime, RCMP, Prudhomme and Vonda Fire Departments and TransGas personnel have personnel in that location.
 
The fire is still burning but authorities say it remains contained to that location.
 
RCMP say the fire is non-suspicious in nature. However, travel in the area remains restricted.
 
There has been no loss of service to customers.

Just what's causing Britain's exploding pavement epidemic? Man injured in blast warns 'only a matter of time' before someone is killed as number of manhole fires triples in four years

  • Number of serious incidents has risen from 34 in 2010 to 124 in the last year
  • Explosions are caused by water seeping into electricity junction boxes
  • This can lead to faulty power cables that spark and ignite leaking gas
  • London and the South East of the UK are the worst affected area

Cara Perrett has many friends in London but her visit to the capital this month will not be easy. ‘I find it difficult coming back now,’ she says. ‘Which is a shame, as I lived there for ten years and have lots of friends whom I miss.’

The source of her fear is not crime or terrorism or crowds, but something that we all take for granted: the pavement beneath our feet.

Two years ago, in May 2012, Mrs Perrett, a barrister, was walking home along the Edgware Road in North-West London when she was engulfed by a fireball erupting from the ground.

‘I was in shock, I was terrified,’ she remembers. ‘The back of my dress and tights were blown off. The tips of my fingers had all but disappeared behind these hard fleshy barnacles that formed at the end of my fingers.’ 

Mrs Perrett suffered severe burns in the explosion, caused by a spark from a faulty electricity cable which then ignited leaking gas.

Pavement explosions, rare and potentially fatal events, are getting less rare. Figures to September show that so far this year, there have been 124 serious manhole fires involving faulty electric cables and junction boxes in Britain, compared to 34 in 2010.

The overwhelming majority - 113 - have occurred in the South East of England, but serious incidents have been recorded over the past few years in Birmingham, Nottingham, Liverpool and, just last month, Aberdeen.

The culprit appears to be the age of the country’s network of underground electricity distribution cables, combined with - or so the half-dozen electricity distribution companies claim - the vagaries of the British weather.

15 feared dead in explosives factory blast
October 02, 2014 06:19 GMT

SOFIA, Bulgaria (AP) -- Authorities say a blast at an explosives factory in northwestern Bulgaria may have killed as many as 15 people.

The explosion, which also left three people injured, occurred near the village of Gorni Lom, some 120 kilometers (75 miles) north of the capital, Sofia, late on Wednesday. Police said smaller explosions continued for several more hours.

Civil Defense chief Nikolai Nikolov said Thursday that the site cannot be inspected by rescue teams until at least 24 hours after the last blast and only then he will he be able to give the exact number of victims.

The cause of the explosions at the factory, owned by a private Bulgarian company, is not immediately clear. In two previous accidents at the site six people have been injured.

Rosemont rocked by explosion, 5 injured

3 people taken to hospital, crews assessing damage to building on Bélanger Street

CBC News Posted: Sep 28, 2014 12:36 PM ET

Firefighters are working to determine whether a building in Montreal's Rosemont borough is structurally sound after an explosion and fire tore through the building Sunday afternoon, leaving five people injured.

The explosion occurred at around noon at a three-storey, 52-unit rooming house at 1460 Bélanger Street, between Garnier and Fabre streets, on the border of Montreal's Rosemont—La-Petite-Patrie and Villeray boroughs. 

The force of the explosion blew out the building's windows.

Five people were injured in the blast, three of whom were taken to hospital.

Bob Lamle of Montreal's Urgences-Santé said two of those taken to hospital were men with first- and second-degree burns to 60 to 70 per cent of their bodies. He said the third victim suffered minor injuries. 

One firefighter suffered minor injuries but was not taken to hospital. 

Firefighters were able to extinguish the fire shortly after the explosion.

"Fire is now satisfied, they've done two sweeps of the building and they are confident that there is no one else left in the building," Lamle told CBC News. 

Montreal police spokeswoman Lynne Duncan said officers evacuated several nearby buildings and are controlling the crowd.

The cause of the four-alarm incident has not been determined.

Injuries reported in gas plant explosion

Trans Canada Gas Line Ruptures in Rural Michigan (Sept 16)

A view of the scale of the the natural gas leak in Benton Township.

500 people from Berrien County were evacuated after a large natural gas pipeline that runs from Canada to Texas ruptured early Wednesday morning.

Vic Rogers, a farmer that lives just a quarter mile from where the blast occurred, says he heard a loud noise around 2 a.m. and came outside to see a geyser of mud and dirt 200 feet in diameter.

A representative from TransCanada says the line that broke was a large main, 24 to 30 inches in diameter.

Many people claimed they could hear the leak from at least a mile away.  One reporter on scene says the noise was like a freight train.

The company does not know what caused the rupture and they say a thorough investigation will be conducted. Results could take weeks if not months.

In the meantime, people are worried about clean-up and about the quality of the water and soil, as the area of the break is now swampy.
