strange... jihadi workplace accident?
Did a Union thug see a Romney sign on the lawn?
Obamayouth work accident?
I live about 2 miles from where this happened. The blast concussion ROCKED my house. I thought something had hit the house. I was panicked. Every neighbor in our subdivision came running out of their house. The blast was heard and felt 8 to 10 miles from the epicenter. They are now saying 80 homes are damaged. 14 are knocked off foundations and a complete loss. 4 are gone.
No word on the cause yet. ATF, Homeland Security, FBI and all the locals are there.
Many in that neighborhood are in my church and go to school with my kids.
Flammability limits of Methane:
4.4% to 17% by volume of air

Then we have:
New London School explosion
The New London School explosion occurred on March 18, 1937, when a natural gas leak caused an explosion, destroying the London School of New London, Texas.

Meth Lab?
Naptown ping.
OBamunist playing with his drones again? He has free reign to assassinate Americans, so why not hit the Bible-toting heartland again.
“It wasn’t yet clear what caused the blast that shook the neighborhood”
Gas?
Was there one explosion from one house that leveled two houses?
The neighbor said Mohamed was a very quiet guy. He was said to be meeting with his Imam over a cartoon drawn on the sidewalk when a package arrived.
The gas company may not have a leak, but that doesn’t rule out methane coming up out of the ground from a “natural” source. There is plenty of that going on around Bayou Corne, LA. The meth lab angle is possible too. BATFE should have a look at the site.
Natural gas explosion at a strip mall - surprised no one has done any research of these ‘things’ being caught on tape as htey happen:

Some of the earliest reports from scanners in the area - who were listening because of a missing elderly man who is diabetic and without his meds - included mention of metal falling from the sky. Some even were saying that before the explosion....though that could be based on the awareness of when people felt/heard/saw some degree of explosion vs. saw debris.
Posted for those unable to find the reference I made earlier to this post by circlecity:

I live about 3 miles from the explosion and it certainly woke me up at 11:13 last night.
I thought someone had ran a car into the front of our home because the house shook.
My son is a nurse and one of his nurse collegues owned the house that exploded.
She had been having trouble with her gas heat all week and Citizens gas had been out working on her gas lines just three or four days before the explosion.
She was gone from home since Thursday night and not home when the explosion occured. Thus, it certainly appears to be a gas explosion.
She did, however, get a call from police asking if she had any enemies or anyone who might want to do something like this to her but I think they are just covering all the bases for the inevitable lawsuits which will be forthcoming.

Mythbusters ignites air/Methane mixture in a confined/closed area (simulating a sewer pipe in this case); note how the pressure wave of the igniting wavefront compresses the un-ignited air on the far left as the flamefront progresses:

Contrary to what the article says....those do not look like BRICK houses.
If the “authorities” are stalling the announcement of a cause, you can rest assured that “No terrorism was involved”
Turned the gas on thinking it would only destroy the one house.
The houses on either side were totaled and houses for a block around had their windows blown out.
The cause was determined to be damage to a gas main out in the street done five years earlier by an excavator when the houses sewer line was replaced. The gas line eventually began leaking and allowed gas to migrate along the sewer line and into the house.
