Monstrous whirlpool in Dviete, Latvia swallows everything in its path (Video)

Monstrous whirlpool in parish Dviete, Latvia near the banks of the Daugava River, swallows everything in its path.

Swallowing everything dragged towards its direction, this monstrous whirlpool looks as if a plug has been pulled from the ground beneath.

Huge chunks of ice? Gone. Floating islands of debris? Annihilated.

Whirlpools in nature occur as a result of fast moving currents meeting one another in opposite directions.

The whirlpool in Latvia has been formed by water from the swollen river flowing into an inlet on the upstream side of a bridge. All of the debris is funneled under the road on which spectators are standing and flows downstream.

According to the European Federation for Rural Tourism, Latvia's Dviete river valley, where this video was filmed, is home to a massive wetland during flooding season.

Massive Earthquake 7.8 struck Kash, Iran - Apr 16, 2013

A powerful earthquake measuring 7.5 on the Richter scale has struck Iran's southeastern province of Sistan and Baluchestan today, reportedly killing at least 40 people in the second deadly quake in the area in less than a week.

Hundreds of people are still missing and feared dead, more than 850 people injured in the disaster.

The IRSC also reported that the epicenter of the quake was situated 81 kilometers north of the city of Saravan.

According to the United States Geographical Survey (USGS) the quake measured 7.8 on the Richter scale and was powerful enough to be felt as far away as New Delhi, India and the Gulf cities of Dubai and Bahrain.

 

Meteor explodes in a ball of fire above Spain - Apr 15, 2013 (Video)

A brilliant ball of flame streaked across the sky above the Spanish capital Madrid, dazzling stargazers and astronomers alike.

The celestial display was so bright it could be seen across the entire country.

The eye-popping moment was caught on camera by the Hita Observatory at the University of Huelva at around 11:45pm local time (21:45 GMT).

The object struck the atmosphere above the Villamuelas district in the province of Toledo, southwest of Madrid.

The impact was so abrupt that the object immediately caught fire, creating a ball of flame around 100 kilometers above the Earth,” The meteor then shot towards Madrid at over 75,000 kilometers an hour before disintegrating completely at an altitude of 70 kilometers.

The explosion as the fireball entered the atmosphere sparked comparisons with the 500-kiloton explosion caused by the meteorite that fell over the Russian city of Chelyabinsk in February.

Huge ionospheric anomaly centered over India - Mar 27, 2013

There is a massive ionospheric anomaly centered over India.

There is a gravitational weaker area over the Indian Ocean and over southern India which means there is a “hollow” spot around India’s South West.

Changing gravitational anomalies in the earth can have global effects as well as there is often a correlation with ionospheric pressure and quakes.
