The next major U.S. disaster is likely about a week away. Over the last few weeks, we have been discussing a next in the series of increasing scale U.S. tragedies (i.e. Aurora, CO., Libya Ambassador, Hurricane Sandy, and Sandy Hook). Our measuring stick is a quantification of the relationship between U.S. social mood as found in Google Hot Trends and the context society finds itself in and is creating (U.S. news). Latest information puts the event occurring April 2-11, with the most likely timeframe as April 4-9.
This next tragedy has been in phase 3 of 3 of its creation since March 17. There was a preliminary wave in mid-March, which manifested in unusual and sad stories, but with no sign of the "pressure release" that would allow us to consider phase 3 as completed.
To summarize the latest information:
1) MoodCompass Type is E SE. This goes with violent protests, mayhem, terrorist activity, and unusual or surprising events. It is more likely to be initiated by a lone disturbed individual or fringe group than a geopolitical entity (government). Natural disasters associated with this configuration are earthquakes and violent storms (including cyclones or high winds). The currently developing U.S. event shows a low probability of being a natural disaster.
2) The event might or might not originate from outside of the U.S. If the event originates in the United States, the most likely region for it to occur is West/Central California, second likely, the Southwestern U.S., and third, the Northeastern U.S.
3) As the events in the series are of increasing subjective impact, there may or may not be more casualties than the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, but it should have a larger emotional impact for most people in the U.S.
During this period there is a very high risk globally, for the types of events listed in 1) above.
