Lightning warnings, collapsing regimes, cannibal solar storms, and a planet quietly shaking itself apart.
Your daily dose of natural disasters and amazing phenomena for January 10, 2026...
⚡ When Your Hair Stands Up, Run
Yes — that haunting photo is real.
It shows brothers Michael (18) and Sean (12) McQuilken standing on Moro Rock in Sequoia National Park on August 20, 1975, seconds before they were struck by lightning.
Their hair wasn’t just messy — it was electrically charged by the storm.
That’s one of the final warning signs before a strike.
Moments later, lightning hit.
Sean was knocked unconscious and suffered third-degree burns.
Michael was also struck but survived with fewer injuries.
The image became one of the most important lightning-safety photographs ever taken — a real-world “you have seconds left” warning.
Sean later died by suicide in 1989.
Michael still shares the story to this day to warn people:
If your hair stands up in a storm — get inside immediately.
🗳 Texas Hands Voter Database to Trump Administration
Texas just gave the Trump administration its complete list of registered voters.
Texas: “We’re seceding!”
Also Texas: “Here’s all our voter data. Please tread on us harder.”
This happened one day after Vance said ICE would begin door-to-door operations.
I’m sure that’s just a coincidence…
✝ Renee Good Was Actually a Christian
Renee Good — killed while intervening to stop violence — was on a mission trip in Ireland.
Her wife said:
“Renee lived by an overarching belief: there is kindness in the world and we need to do everything we can to find it where it resides and nurture it where it needs to grow.”
To those claiming she wasn’t “a real Christian” — Jesus literally intervened to stop state-sanctioned violence in John 8:7.
Renee did exactly that, and was killed. Why do people always forget the best part: "Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more" (John 8:11).

☀ Cannibal CME Incoming
A C5.5-class solar flare launched a CME toward Earth — and it’s merging with another.
This creates a Cannibal CME, which punches far above its weight.
Auroras likely Jan 10–11 at high latitudes…

Until tomorrow.

Thou shalt not kill.
Yeah... she was a real Christian. .. a "Christian" who trained to fight against ICE agents.
According to witnesses, Renee Nicole Good was shot for attempting to run over an ICE officer in Minneapolis. She was the ringleader and head driver of the anti-ICE caravan, in a neighborhood she didn't live in. Her wife was OUTSIDE the car filming the whole thing for social media likes.
Witness: “She was the main car leading the protest... She was very successful in blocking traffic.”
Read her "Christian" poem she wrote about dissecting Fetal Pigs:

Maybe you should thoroughly research before you post your biased slant on US issues... there's much more about her and her child-abusive "wife."
Renee Good did not intervene to stop violence. She and her wife intervened to block a road and taunt the law officers. Not very Christian like activity. Perhaps they should have been praying. After all it is a sin to dress and act like men when you are a women. . That is what the Bible states also.
