Fire In The Sky Over Los Angeles--Earthquake Lights?
Could the recent reports of lights in the sky portend an imminent earthquake for Los Angeles? "Fire in the sky" was recently reported over Los Angeles and was explained away by Fire Dept. spokesperson Brian Humphrey as being the remnants of meteor showers. "We received several 911 calls from concerned citizens early today about fire being seen across the Los Angeles skies". We have witnessed many a meteor shower in our time and have never noticed an effect we would label as "fire in the sky". We're not saying it is impossible for a fantastic meteor shower to light up the sky. In 1833, a Latter Day Saints apostle, Parley P. Pratt, witnessed the "night the stars fell":
"About two o'clock the next morning we were called up by the cry of signs in the heavens. We arose, and to our great astonishment all the firmament seemed enveloped in splendid fireworks, as if every star in the broad expanse had been hurled from its course, and sent lawless through the wilds of the ether. Thousands of bright meteors were shooting through space in every direction, with long trains of light following their course. This lasted for several hours, and was only closed by the dawn of the rising sun."
It's possible the fire in the sky over Los Angeles recently was caused by a phenomenon known as "earthquake lights". Below is a short video taken following the devastating earthquake in Peru which occurred on August 15th, 2007; it shows the phenomenon of earthquake lights:
The phenomenon was once believed to be a fantasy, much like the UFO story, until the lights were recorded on photographs during a Japanese earthquake swarm during the mid 1960s. Even the USGS admits that:
"While EQL [earthquake lights] sightings are often given more exotic labels, they are a recognized geophysical phenomenon that may one day contribute to the possibility of forecasting earthquakes in the few locations where they occur. "
We suggest that it is possible these lights are portending an earthquake and it may be something the L.A. Fire Dept. has in the back of their minds. Of, course it may just be nothing...such is the wonder and confusion of The Apocalypse Times.
