  1. I think it was 6.15pm based on eyewitness reports but I don't have verification on this

  2. That's about the time it happened. It looks like the gas pipe exploded on Claremont and Vermont street when you look at the helicopter videos. My cousin and her husband made it safely out of their house. She said people were running down the street in fear of their lives.

  3. After looking at this morning's video. The explosion happened on Glenview a couple of houses south of Claremont.

  4. yeah, the famous video of the house was taken from a bit up vermont, towards claremont. You can see the house on google although the house in front seems a different color. (the burning house - note how the second floor juts out over the driveway about a foot or two, then just to the right the roof has a tiny window near the apex)

    Straight line of sight takes you to the other side of the block where the burst happened on Glenview. So the leak was like a block-sized torch burning everything within and around.
