I heard reports of gas odors in Brooklyn about an hour ago when I was listening to one of the scanners my friend had linked to. Interesting that the power was already out when it started. I wonder what set it off as I would think a gas leak would cause explosions, wouldn’t it? (Maybe not if the origin of the leak is under water though... I’m definitely not anywhere near an expert on these things - just hypothesizing!)
On FOX the stupid congressman or councilman or whatever he is said the fires began because people didn't evacuate. He backed off when questioned by reporter ... said maybe because homes were close together. Duh!
In better days ...
