That’s been one of the big stories around here. Hard to fathom what that explosion must have been like.

I remember a propane explosion years ago in Buffalo. A tank had leaked at a commercial business and filled up they figure the bottom 10” of this warehouse over the weekend. It leveled several city blocks when it went off. It also moved a fire truck about 150’ and killed so of the firemen that had just showed up.

As we know propane is heavier than the air around it. So it will sink to the floor/basement of the structure it is leaking into.

10 to 12 miles away it knocked pictures off my wall in my shop and shook the walls of my mobile home so much my son saw them move.
