Luke 21:7 “Teacher,” they asked, “when will all this happen? What sign will show us that these things are about to take place?” Luke 21:11 "There will be great earthquakes, and there will be famines and epidemics in many lands, and there will be terrifying things (that which strikes terror), and great miraculous signs in the heavens."
A multitude of sinkholes around the country has struck in the last two days.
A massive Florida sinkhole that opened in February 2013 under the home of Jeff Bush, swallowing the man and his bedroom, reopened on Wednesday. The sinkhole is now part of vacant lots after the government destroyed homes surrounding it and was filled in again for a second time.
“It brings back memories,” the victim’s brother Jeremy Bush told CNN affiliate WFLA with tears in his eyes. “I think about it every day. There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t think about it.”
Another sinkhole in Leesburg, Virginia knocked out water to residents and left a 30 foot by 40 foot hole in the middle of a street. The city has been monitoring the hole for further movement.
In Athens, Georgia, a sinkhole opened near a local business and swallowed an ice machine and the end wall of a car wash. Lynn Taylor, a neighbor to the business, said she heard noises beginning around midnight and awoke to find the hole the following morning.
“It sounded like somebody was ruffling my doors,” Taylor said.
Finally, Interstate 93 in Concord, New Hampshire reopened Thursday after a sinkhole closed the road down on Wednesday. The 20-foot sinkhole closed the northbound highway between Exits 13 and 14 around Noon Wednesday.
In a fortunate situation, a staffer for the Department of Transportation was driving over the sinkhole as it began to collapse and they were able to stop traffic before anyone drove into it.
