I am still feeling what only can be described as echoes of what I described previously. Even though floods, storms, fires, and earthquakes have struck so far this year before then... Four types of disaster, four classic elements.
Of course, the fifth and last element is variously referred to as ether, void, or quintessence.
How that might turn out, I cannot begin to imagine.
H.P. Lovecraft might have been a mediocre writer, compared with a lot of authors, but he had something correct. The nameless horror, the one that we cannot describe, the one that defies logic is worse than any other.
