The cars were exploding and some melting this heat was so bad...so yes I can easily see houses exploding until they shut down the gas lines to the area.

Right now on KTVU they reported that a coroner is there and there is so far 1 casualty. One gentlemen that lived further up from the explosion ran out of the garage with his video camera and shot film of the explosion. However he stated that for the past few days the smell of gas was present.

I wonder if anyone reported about it when the smell was first noticed. He also stated that a PG & E crew was there some days ago where the explosion occur.

I thought the news was also vague about the Fires in Detroit.

They were jumping houses in different neigborhoods..

Not sure if they know what Started the New York Staten Island Fires or the Boulder Colorado Fires yet...

CNN has PGE on and they say it’s too early to tell what caused the fire.

Just has another report of the smell of gas for 3 weeks in that area.

PG&E on the spot..

Report on KRON that a 1948 30-inch pipe ruptured and shot gas back into a number of the homes creating a huge fireball

I read there was one arrest related to the Detroit fires. Not sure how much or if he was responsible.
