Tanuki Rain

The Tanuki Rain is the name for a slow motion Breakout event that is still ongoing. 
The event consists of multiple dimensional intrusions by persons not of this universe, all of then of the Tanuki species, in numbers of one to ten at a time. All those in these events that can give a clear report of their circumstances state they were about to die violently. Most are surprised to be alive.
All have appeared within the United States in places they can be found.
We have verification that these Tanuki are coming from other universes as some have come from the world of Tuen, which we have contact with. (The majority of those from this source have elected to return home.) 
The largest single event was the intrusion of the FS Life of Leisure off the Coast of Dayton Beach in 2014. The ship holding 4500 persons sank in 100 feet of water and was later salvaged. It is the only intrusion that has left a major artifact. 
As of the end of 2018 there have been a total of 55.849 persons dropped by the Tanuki rain that remain as residents of the United States. Many have become citizens as they are able. 
The majority have settled in Tall Trees, Montana, with smaller communities in Marietta and Savanna, Georgia and Vista City, California.
It has been the policy of the last two Administrations to treat all members of the Tanuki rain as refugees to be granted asylum. It has been made easy for such refugees to gain permanent residency and later citizenship.
The mechanism was sought. Evan Blackmane was considered the logical source, but he claims he has nothing to do with it, that he knows of. Time does not flow the same in all places and it is entirely possible that in some future time or place he has arranged this event. He does admit is looks like something he would do. In this time and place he does not have that kind of power or knowledge.
