Greece Declares Emergency in Flood Hit North

Source: ZeeNews

A swollen river in Greece bursts its banks, flooding homes and forcing authorities to declare a state of emergency on Tuesday, officials said.

In Poland, meanwhile, the big freeze that is holding the rest of Europe in its icy grip killed another six people in the last 24 hours, the Interior Ministry said in a statement.

Ministry spokeswoman Malgorzata Wozniak said on Tuesday that three other people died of asphyxiation with carbon monoxide from heaters they were using to heat their homes. The temperatures in Poland have plunged as low as minus 32 C (minus 26 F) since the freeze began.

In Greece, rescuers had to extract five elderly people on Tuesday from their flooded homes after the river Evros burst its banks near the country’s northeastern border with Bulgaria. Sevaral elderly residents were also evacuated overnight from another three villages in the area.

Evros, which enters Greece from Bulgaria and runs along the border with Turkey, is swollen after days of heavy rainfall, compounded by a burst dam in southern Bulgaria.

The dam on Bulgaria’s Ivanovo Reservoir collapsed on Monday, sending a torrent into the nearby village of Bisser that killed eight people and flooded 700 houses.

Japanese Debris to Start Hitting Western U.S. and Canada THIS WEEK

Japanese Debris to Hit Western U.S. and Canada


It turns out that scientists underestimated the speed with which the debris would reach the Western coast of North America.

As Canada’s National Post reports today:
The largest items swept out to sea following the Japanese tsunami in March could arrive on the B.C. coastline within days, oceanographer Curt Ebbesmeyer predicted on Wednesday.
The main part of the 20-million-ton debris field, equivalent in size to the state of California, isn’t expected until about 2014, but houses, fishboats and even small freighters could already be close to Canadian shores, Mr. Ebbesmeyer said.

“We just finished running a simulation with a drifter, a buoy that got lost in the area of the tsunami, and we find that the first of the debris would be here now,” Mr. Ebbesmeyer said.
Beachcombers along the west coast of B.C. should be on the lookout and report any unusual finds, he said.
Mr. Ebbesmeyer is a Seattle-based oceanographer, educated at the University of Washington, who tracks flotsam using computer models. He has consulted for multinational firms, working on projects such as the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Earthquake Rattles Eastern Turkey, Crumbles Buildings And Kills 3

Source: VOA News

A 5.7-magnitude earthquake shook eastern Turkey late Wednesday, killing at least three people and collapsing about 20 buildings. Dozens of people are believed to be trapped under the rubble in the Van region near the border with Iran.  At least 10 survivors have been pulled from under the toppled buildings so far.

The quake struck less than three weeks after a strong temblor in the region killed about 600 people and displaced thousands.

State television reported that among the newly toppled buildings was a six-story hotel, which was used by foreign journalists and aid workers.

Local television said rescuers were sent to the region from the capital, Ankara, and other places to the area where work had begun to clear debris from the previous disaster.

The U.S. Geological Survey says the earthquake struck at 9:23 p.m. local time.  The epicenter was about 15 kilometers from Van province, which was devastated by a 7.2-magnitude quake on October 23.   Thousands of people have been living in tents since that disaster.

It is not clear if Wednesday's quake was a strong aftershock.

5.6 Magnitude Quake Rocks Oklahoma On Day of Quakes - Nov 6

U.S. Geological Survey geophysicist Jill McCarthy said there were two tremors Saturday — a 4.7 magnitude about 2 a.m. and a 5.6 magnitude shortly before 11 p.m., and a series of aftershocks in between.

The magnitude 5.6 earthquake in Oklahoma on Saturday night felt was as far as Wisconsin, U.S. Geological Survey geophysicist Jill McCarthy said.

“We have had eight recorded earthquakes (in Oklahoma) in the past 24 hours or so,” she said.

Chile: Earth Changes Are Intensifying As More Volcanoes Become Active

In recent days Chile’s Hudson Volcano has been very active.

An excerpt from The Washington Post reads;
SANTIAGO, Chile — Chile’s Hudson Volcano released three huge columns of steam and ash that combined in a cloud more than 3 miles (5 kilometers) high on Friday, threatening a much larger eruption that had authorities in Chile and Argentina on red alert.
Chilean officials evacuated 119 people from the immediate area, and other nearby residents prepared to flee as melting snow and ice caused the Aysen river to overflow its banks.
Experts fear a large scale eruption in the near future.

The earth changes are getting increasingly rampant across the globe as a massive 6.9 earthquake strikes Peru.

An excerpt from Bloomberg reads;
A magnitude 6.9 earthquake struck off the west coast of Peru, rattling residents in cities still recovering from a temblor that killed more than 500 people in 2007. No fatalities were immediately reported.
The temblor knocked out power and sent people running from their homes near its center, 286 kilometers (178 miles) south- southeast ofLima. In Ica, which was devastated by the magnitude-8 quake in 2007, a cathedral wall and church tower collapsed, along with several mud brick buildings, said Juan Carlos Romani, a spokesman for the city council.
“It was very strong but quick,” Romani said in a telephone interview from Ica, adding power and phone service hadn’t fully returned. “It lasted ten seconds at most but was very violent.”
The U.S. Geological Survey reported a magnitude 5 aftershock about 90 minutes after the initial temblor.
Most of the collapsed homes were built of adobe officials said.

M7.2 Quake Near ELENIN Alignment Date Strikes Turkey With Deadly Force

A massive M7.2 earthquake hit eastern Turkey today, killing at least 138 people with estimates into the thousands.

Buildings and massive structures buckled like rag dolls into twisted metal as highways and roads were reduced to pulp in some areas.

It is unknown at this time if the Turkish earthquake has anything to do with ELENIN or another object (coded under ELENIN) entering earth orbit on October 20, 2011, pulling gravitationally on earth.

The Intel Hub will be covering this issue leading up to the November 9, 2011 FEMA/FCC takeover drill of all airwaves, and the major ELENIN alignment date.(Psyop Or Not)

Megatsunami 2011 Watch: Real Threat or Predictive Programming?

From: CyberSpaceWar.com

Is the unstable flank of Cumbre Viega volcano in the Canary Islands ready to plunge into the ocean? The hype is at a crescendo about an imminent mega-tsunami resulting from a landside into 4,000 feet of water. The heightened concern is due to 9,300 tremors experienced in the Canary Islands since July. A tsunami threat to the East Coast of the United States is well-known as reported in a 2004 Rense article. The threat is real but timing seems convenient for a desperate oligarch class? Media hype only builds expectations of tragedy for the East Coast! Is it predictive programming?
