Ms Kutluol claims an electric shock ran up her left arm, leaving her with extreme pins and needles
This is the terrifying moment a mother-of-two's phone records being struck by a bolt of lightning - as she tried to film a thunderstorm.

Tracey Kutluol, 43, was filming the storm from her living room window when her iPhone was zapped by the thunderbolt at 10pm last night.

The dramatic footage shows Ms Kutluol, from Galashiels in the Scottish Borders, joking 'I'm going to get electrocuted' as she opened her window to get a better look at the storm.

The video shows dark clouds and thunder can be heard before a flash of lightning strikes the phone. Ms Kutluol, who was with her children Max, ten and Mia, 14, while filming the video, said her life flashed before her eyes.

Ms Kutluol claims an electric shock ran up her left arm, leaving her with extreme pins and needles. She said it was her new rubber phone cover - delivered just hours before she was struck - that saved her life.

A powerful earthquake on the Indonesian tourist island of Lombok killed at least 14 people, injured more than 160 and damaged thousands of homes.

The shallow 6.4-magnitude quake jolted the island in the early morning, sending people running outside in panic and triggering landslides on popular mountain hiking routes.

Scores of aftershocks sparked fear among survivors. More than 120 were recorded, the biggest with a magnitude of 5.7, Indonesia's meteorology agency said.

Local officials have declared a three day state emergency, according to multiple television reports.

Late-season surge in Noctilucent Clouds produces stunning displays

Noctilucent clouds (NLCs) are behaving strangely. Normally, NLCs begin to dim in late July, then fade away completely as August unfolds. It is their seasonal pattern. This year, though, the night-shining clouds are surging as July comes to an end. "We had a mind-blowing display of noctilucent clouds display on July 26th," reports Kairo Kiitsak, who sends this picture from Simuna, Estonia:

"The rippling structure of the clouds was amazing," says Kiitsak. "In all, the display lasted for full three hours."

The clouds rippled as far south as Poland, where Marek Nikodem saw them before sunrise on July 28th:

Thousands of dead fish found along Mystic River in Somerville, Massachusetts

DEAD FISH
The state is investigating a fish kill along the banks of the Mystic River near Assembly Row in Somerville.

The fish are all along the banks floating or washed up on the shore at Draw Seven State Park. It's not a pretty sight. The state is trying to pinpoint what caused this and right now believe the warmer water temps may be a factor.

The Mystic River in Somerville is a popular place for people to enjoy the atmosphere near the water, just killing time.

But the regulars were shocked this week to find dead fish littering the banks.

"This is unusual, I've never seen this before," David Mussina told Boston 25 News.

Dead menhaden have been washing ashore on the banks of the Mystic behind Assembly Row just across the river from the soon-to-be Encore Boston harbor Casino.

Strange animal behavior: Beaver attack on large dog in Medford, New Jersey is 'craziest thing'

Beaver
A veterinarian who's been practicing medicine in South Jersey for more than 40 years called it "the craziest thing I've ever seen."

A beaver attacked a large dog walking with its owner along the Rancocas Creek in Medford Wednesday, nearly dragging the dog underwater.

Dr. William Pettit at Peticote Veterinary Clinic in Southampton, who treated the 95-pound yellow Labrador, said the owner was walking with the dog in a wooded area off Branch Street when a beaver approached him.

Pettit said the dog got between the beaver and his owner, and that was when the rodent attacked, biting the dog's hind leg and dragging it toward the water.

At least seven villagers were killed and two others missing after heavy rains triggered a mudslide

At least seven villagers were killed and two others missing after heavy rains triggered a mudslide
Landslides in northern Thailand, triggered by days of heavy downpours, killed seven people on Saturday and left one missing, an official said.

All of the victims lived in the mountainous district of Bo Kluea in Nan province, where the landslides have also caused damage to houses and roads, Prasit Dussadeewong, a district security official, told Reuters.

"It's because of nearly two weeks of heavy rains. We've warned people of such landslides but did not expect they would be this big," he said.

Landslides and flooding in Thailand usually occur during the May-November rainy season.

Widespread floods in 2011 killed more than 900 people and caused major disruption to industry and dented economic growth.

Comment: Elsewhere across Asia in the last few days landslides have killed 27 in Myanmar (Burma) and 8 in Nepal.

The doomsday scenario of Brexit is empty shelves in supermarkets
As the UK both confirms and denies stockpiling food, and California wines are showing signs of radioaction from Fukushima, Christian turns to his BILLIONS of friends for solace: Kombucha and other living beverages can help you mitigate the effects of radiation (See studies below!) Lactobacillus is an amazing workhorse, useful from your gut to your garden, and can be cultured very easily.

It's also the #1 microorganism in Korean Natural Farming (KNF). Watch to learn more and take your growing to the next level -- every bit needed to grow our own food as agriculture collapses in the Grand Solar Minimum.

Apologies for the wind noise.

Ice Age Farmer Report: "Nobody's Prepared For This..."

dead cow
Food production is collapsing. Finland posted its worst grain yield this century; the situation is dire across Europe. Orange peels and sour watermelons are the only thing keeping some livestock alive in Australia. Damages due to weeks of rain in Japan. Christian shares reports from farmers on the ground, and makes clear the very real effects on food production and prices globally. Start preparing now.

Spread the truth - these are natural cycles, and it's up to us to build anti-fragile communities in order to thrive in the times ahead.

Adapt 2030 Ice Age Report: NOAA satellites malfunction as Arctic ice increases, 4 year gap expected

arctic ice
Expect a "Gap" in Arctic ice measurement as ageing satellites are all planned to go down at the same time starting next year. Beyond that strange circumstance, the replacements planned are now on hold as NOAA's newest launch malfunctioned and all other launches are on hold, which include ice mapping satellites for a gap of 4 years, all while Arctic ice begins to recover in cooler water pulses into the Arctic and the Grand Solar Minimum intensifies.

Its as if the satellites are being purposefully taken off line so the media and governments of the planet wont have to explain why ice recovered so quickly with such summer thickness.
