Sorry for taking so long. I have to admit the recent string of anomalies had me baffled for a while until I reorganized all the data for the eighth time and noticed that three events involved people from the town of Lake Lorelei, Ohio. When I dug deeper, I found that every one of the events could be connected to the town in some way or other (I've attached a list for the other analysts to check), and I have become convinced that Lake Lorelei is now a nexus of supernatural activity. As you know, there are many places across the world (some populated and some belonging to the wilderness) where supernatural phenomena occur with alarming frequency. Sometimes the land itself is simply over saturated with power, sometimes it is the sight of some incident of serious historic and arcane significance, and sometimes a handful of minor arcane incidents (the laying of a curse, a clash between two powerful beings, the arrival of an artifact, etc.) occur in the same place and interact in such a way as to form a sort of knot or nexus of combined power. My guess is that Lake Lorelei recently became empowered through that final method, some convergence of minor incidents. I don't know exactly how to explain the fact that there are no reports of phenomena from Lake Lorelei, but many of these places do have a habit of protecting themselves from outsiders. Usually just the really, really powerful ones, though.
I would suggest sending in several squads of agents, each one containing specialists in distortions, skilled psychics, and combat experts. It may become necessary to pull them out quickly if Lake Lorelei turns out to have any unique...shall we say, quirks? If not, you should still expect at least one of the squads to get bogged down in some loop or illusion.
