It is methane gas. The gas is all around the area and has been bubbling in the bayous since last summer. This is the biggest and most active bubbling spot that has just appeared.
ASSUMPTION PARISH, LA (WAFB) -
Here is an article I did the other day 1/19/13 about the pad of the sinkhole having to be evacuated and a flyover after the "burp" of it.
This is one serious mother of all sinkholes. I hope the Office of Emergency Preparedness is monitoring this situation around the clock.
