Thanks, I didn’t think of that. I like to think all that stuff is probably a lot safer than it is!

Update 6:45:: People online confirm that the fire started out as a long, roaring sound, then an explosion, which sound like it could have very well been a plane crash. Whatever started this horrific blaze, something is fueling it. The blaze is roaring out of control.

I used to have family live in San Bruno. If I recall it is on a hillside higher then the airport. Was the plane taking off and didn’t make altitude?

Exactly. I was in Auburn, AL one Sunday when the Kopper Kettle (a local eatery) blew up. The damage was unbelievable! It made an impression on me and I am always vigilant about gas leaks.

A plane crash could certainly cause a gas exlosion/fire as well.

Early on, there was discussion of a possible plane crash, before SFO and FAA chimed in with info.

6:58: Highway 280 is closed. The fire, centered around San Bruno Avenue and Skyline Blvd., has prompted the evacuation of the area. CBS 5 says, “ Many residents have reported seeing a plane go down. Others felt a huge shock wave, and heard an explosion. “

It looks a lot like a high pressure gas line that is located on a fault.

7:14: The flames coming from the fire, according to CBS 5, appear to stem from natural gas. PG&E says they cannot confirm if it’s a PG&E line.
