Have you heard the rumbling sound over the CSRA?
We have, too. The phones in the WJBF News Channel 6 newsroom have been ringing off the hook.
Well, we have found out that U.S. military fighter jets are conducting training exercises involving Fort Gordon, so there is no reason to worry.
We are working to confirm where the jets came from and where they may be headed.
We will provide more information as it becomes available.

An undersea volcano has created a new Japanese island 620 miles south of Tokyo. The eruption took place 500 meters from the uninhabited Nishinoshima Island.
An undersea volcano has created a new Japanese island 620 miles south of Tokyo. The eruption took place 500 meters from the uninhabited Nishinoshima Island.
The small, but growing, island appeared last year and quickly engulfed the already-existing island of Nishinoshima, around 1000 kilometres south of Tokyo.
It now covers 1.26 square kilometres.
The island's craters are currently spewing out 200,000 cubic metres of lava every day - enough to fill 80 Olympic swimming pools - which is accumulating in its east, scientists said.
"If lava continues to mount on the eastern area, part of the island's slopes could collapse and cause a tsunami," warned Fukashi Maeno, assistant professor of the Earthquake Research Institute at the University of Tokyo.

Comment: Big things can start out in small packages. As the earth opens up more and more each day, the potential for disaster lurks, for some, only 18 minutes away. Have you been monitoring earth changes around you and have they motivated you to become more alert, observant, conscious and aware?

Thirteen people were also missing, media said, after a month's worth of rain fell overnight, loosening slopes already saturated by heavy rain over the past few weeks. A resident told Fuji.TV:
"There was rain and thunder all night, beating down so hard I was scared to go outside. Great big drops. I've never seen anything like this."

Public broadcaster NHK showed rescue workers suspended by ropes from police helicopters pulling victims from the rubble. Others gingerly climbed into windows as they searched for survivors in crushed homes.
Hillsides were swept down into residential areas in at least five valleys in the suburbs of the western Japanese city after heavy rains left slopes unstable.
Hiroshima prefectural police said 36 people were confirmed dead and at least seven others were missing as of Wednesday night. The Fire and Disaster Management Agency said 15 people were injured, two seriously.

The new study was published online in the scientific journal Nature last week and will be appearing in the 21 August print issue.
Comment: We are one step away from an ice age! The alleged 'pause' in global warming, as promoted by mainstream media, is nothing more than propaganda to enable the warmists to keep pushing their agenda.

A planet fixated on global warming is not prepared for the real climate crisis that's already here - a pronounced cold spell that could last another 30 years and cause damage to the world's crops, a private researcher and space policy that expert told Newsmax TV on Friday.

Noise annoys.
Noise annoys.
Peter Thorne, of Brantwood Drive, Paignton, has, along with 20 other residents, handed in a petition to Torbay Council asking them to ask the Zoo to soundproof a oil gas boiler in the giraffe house that they believe is causing the humming or droning sound.
This low frequency noise has been disturbing residents since the autumn of last year and it can apparently still be heard at present, but the Zoo have confirmed to the Herald Express that the boiler has been turned off for weeks.
However, Mr Thorne, who handed in the petition last Thursday, has said: "I am very tired. The noise is still there. I am being disturbed in the night and am being kept awake by this. It is a humming or droning noise that at times it can be quite loud. It has been going on since October/November since last year."

In other major news, a long needed revision to the 400-year sunspot record was proposed. It'll be the first change made to the sunspot record since it was first established by Rudolf Wolf back in 1849. The changes will affect long-term climate and other dependent scientific studies.
One effect of the proposal will be to reduce modern sunspot totals. That will wipe out the so-called "Modern Maximum" and make the current sunspot cycle, Cycle 24, the weakest in 200 years.

The so-called feather-loss disorder was first seen in 2006 in penguin chicks housed at a captive facility in South Africa. One year later, several cases were observed across the Atlantic Ocean, in wild Magellanic penguin chicks along the coast of Argentina.

Summer hail storm buries parts of Mexico City
Summer hail storm buries parts of Mexico City
"Roads such as the North Loop [el Periférico Norte] were flooded by hail and flooding, so municipal and Federal District workers labored for hours to clear them, Notimex reported," wrote CNN Mexico.
Mexico news organization Azteca Noticias called it a "historical hailstorm".

Hail is not uncommon in the Valley of Mexico, which includes Mexico City.
On Sunday, an area of low pressure at high altitudes generated the instability necessary for the vigorous, hail-producing storms.
In addition to hail, flash flooding was also reported in the region.
Here's video (narrated in Spanish) from Mexico City from Aztec News via YouTube:
Comment: Notice that though this alleged drop training was a scheduled event it wasn't announced until after reports of strange sounds were coming in to the local news. Also, there were military planes in the sky at the time, but according to local residents they looked like F-16's and no one has seen the C-130's that were alleged to have made the sounds. So what could be generating these strange sounds that the military and media is blaming on non-existent planes:
