SOTT '
Earth Changes' video summary for
February 2016: extreme weather events, environmental indicators of 'planetary upheaval' (seismic, volcanic, etc), and
Near-Earth Objects in the form of meteor fireballs.
Sinkholes swallowing cars and people, meteor fireballs raining down, and volcanoes erupting all over the place - for the shortest month of the year, February 2016 sure was eventful
...
Last month, there were many spectacular volcanic eruptions in
Mexico,
Guatemala,
Nicaragua,
Indonesia and
Japan.
Elsewhere, the
Earth literally opened up to kill a man in
Arizona, while a giant fissure swallowed a river in southern Mexico.
Major earthquakes included a
6.4 magnitude tremor in
Taiwan that toppled buildings and killed 33 people, while another strong quake (5.9M) struck
Christchurch, New Zealand, which is still rebuilding after a devastating earthquake struck the
South Island city in
February 2011.
A
LOT of spectacular meteor fireballs were caught on camera last month. On just one day,
February 6th, there were 3 notable meteor events.
NASA reported that a massive overhead explosion occurred in the
South Atlantic Ocean, while a second meteor shook homes when it exploded over
Denmark and sent meteorites to the ground, and a third meteor did likewise in southern
India, killing a man who had the misfortune of becoming the first official case of 'death-by-meteor'. The bolide that exploded over the
South Atlantic was the largest to hit the planet since the
Chelyabinsk event, almost three years to the day.
Strange sky sounds were again heard around the world last month, notably in the US
Northeast and
Quebec. Deluges brought flash-flooding to
Mauritius,
Fiji was flattened by its strongest ever storm,
Peru was hit by devastating mudslides, and there were heavy snowfalls in parts of the US and
Pakistan. Ottawa, Canada received its biggest single-day snowfall in over
100 years. Incredibly, it also snowed in Guatemala and
Honduras for only the second time (the first occasion was in
2013), while
Costa Rica,
10 degrees north of the equator, received its first ever snowfall.
An increasingly erratic
Jet Stream coupled with a record-strong
El Nino brought weather extremes to the US, with the
US Southwest experiencing a record heatwave for this time of year, the US Northeast experiencing record cold temperatures mid-month, and the
US South experiencing both unseasonal tornado outbreaks and blizzards. In what appears to be an increasing trend, sea life continues washing ashore in droves on beaches around the world. We also have several clips of animals going on the rampage, including the rather symbolic sight of a bear attacking people in
Turkey.
These were the signs of the times in February 2016...
