Kanawha County Commission President Kent Carper tells WSAZ.com crews were called to what was described as a major gas line explosion in Sissonville.
WSAZ says that right now, no injuries or fatalities have been reported.

How many of these does it make in the last month or so?
Methinks these neighborhood explosions are not accidents.

Probably a fairly large trunk line under decent pressure.

A large natural gas pipeline fire. They have the gas shut off I hear.

A couple years ago a huge gas line exploded near my hometown of Lisbon OH. You could see the flames all the way over in Pittsburgh PA. This was the main pipe from Louisiana to New England, 3 or 4 feet in diameter. It happened in the middle of a pasture luckily, but burned for about half a day.
