http://cbs5.com/This explosion happened about 3 blocks from my office
according to the guard on duty we are about two blocks from the flames.
Several people are seriously injured and some need blood so if you are in the Bay Area and can donate blood please do.
This has been confirmed, it is NOT a plane crash, it is a high pressure gas line.
Edit...one fatality so far...

Sad news indeed. I just heard about that in school today. Gas lines accidents are nasty.

Videos of the devastation remind me of pictures of the subsequent fire resulting from the disastrous 1906 San Francisco Earthquake.

San Francisco.
San Bruno Avenue:
Highway 101. Approach to San Francisco International Airport (KSFO)
A few hundred yards from Runways 11L and 11R and in line with aircraft departing from Runways 28L and 28R.

One of the reasons I've never liked gas fuel lines -- too dangerous in conjunction with accidents and natural disasters... God protect.8-)

The one thing I really like about the Flight Simulators...
I boarded my little Cessna 150 and took of from KSFO, Runway 26R, turning slightly left, flew over Interstate 101 to San Bruno to slowly observe the scene, and landed at Half Mood Bay (KHAF).
Wherever disaster strikes in the World, I "Sim Fly" there to explore the scene!

Nobody that I knew got hurt or affected, the firefighters did a terrific job holding the fire back from our compound. Such a tragedy.
