Stepped outside tonight and heard an explosion, then a "jet engine". Now, I live in the boonies and we have had storms all day. My first thought was it sounded like a jet, but couldn't be...then it hit me, TORNADO!!! Ran inside, put the kids in the basement then went back outside to watch it. The sound just continued, didn't move, kinda strange! Well, it turned out it was not a tornado, wasn't a jet either. A 20 inch gas main blew about 1/2 mile from the house! No fire, just a lot of noise and gas. Had no idea we had a gas main of that size so close to the house... Just out of curiosity, does anyone know what kind of pressure something like that would carry? Like I said, it was at least 1/2 mile from the house, but sounded like it was no more than a couple hundred yards. Dug
