No, I do not think that about rainfall or melting ice caps. I've never believed the mainstream propaganda. Well, except maybe briefly in my childhood.

The continental shift/crust movement is more plausible, but that will take much longer to develop.

As for the predictions from the scripture, my thinking is that whatever revelations the writers had were filtered by their understanding of the world as it was back then. Where they saw fire, today we can only speculate whether they have seen actual fire, or massive explosions such as those of nuclear weapons, or something else, which they interpreted as fire.
