Geysers are spewing up to 14 feet. I haven't heard if there is a natural gas line with multiple leaks or what is causing this. It appears to be following a creek line and is about a mile south of the city of Kingfisher, moving north.

Spooky.

That does sound spooky.

Interesting.

I'm sure if it was from a pipeline it would have already been identified. Must be an event of nature.

I didn't think OK was a geothermic hotspot although their neighbors to the east are.

Cool! The landowners should cap it and live off the proceeds.

At the old home place, the water was so full of oil it was undrinkable. Our luck, there wasn't enough Texas tea to make it worthwhile.

These geysers constantly erupting could be a major sign of a pending volcanic erupting under the area. I would highly suggest you check to see if there are any underground magma chambers in or around the city of Kingfisher.

If you a living near this area and there are magma chambers underneath you, GET OUT OF TOWN NOW BY AT LEAST A HUNDRED MILES AWAY!!

Is this anywhere near the Meers Fault?

Envirowackos need to sue Mother Nature for polluting the pristine countryside of Oklahoma.

[nuconvert]

Were these previously known geysers or new ones?

[rockprof]

From the report, it isn't clear what the hell these are. I'm guessing they may be natural gas emissions. If they follow a creek bed it's likely that they're being emitted along a fault line. I have no idea what the regional geology is like there but it's highly unlikely to be volcanic in origin (no reason to run for the hills yet!).

Civil Engineers ping.

Of possible interest.

For some reason, after I read your post, the theme song from "The Beverly Hillbillies" popped into my head.....

Muddy water from Dead Indian Creek spews several feet in the air from a gaping hole where gas broke through the surface on a rural road outside Kingfisher.

[Just another Joe]

Possible precursor to an earthquake also.

[Dustbunny]

Yep, it is Spooky.

Maybe the natural gas companies should attempt to tap into them.

[eccentric]

Bush's fault, 'cause he didn't sign Kyoto --- whatever...

[Minnesoootan]

I always thought a natural gas line was under low pressure and only the reduction in a feed line at the house(or what ever) produces higher pressure....I don't think multitple leaks in a main line over 12 mile stretch has enough pressure to blow mud and water 14ft,this sounds like a natural source.

"KINGFISHER -- State and local officials are puzzled by a series of geysers that have erupted in recent days in Kingfisher County, spewing mud and gas into the air."

Puzzled? I'd say it's probably a sign of possible future earthquake activity. That's some serious stuff.
