Glad also that you guys were not directly affected. And glad that a Massachusetts State Trooper flying over the area taking infrared photos noticed an anomaly and it turned out to be another major gas leak below the sidewalk. Probably saved many lives.

Lets see we got a hurricane, now wacky gas explosions in an unexpected place and time, what is next. As the cajuns say Gri Gri happens in threes.
Dean glad you and family are hopefully okay. Typically pressures on gas lines is no more than 2 to 5 psi, to get a spike like that to cause that many widespread occurrences is a huge failure in the system. Should not of happened. |

We’re fine thank-you. We spent the night in our home even though residents with Columbia Gas service were advised to to evacuate their homes. My gas is still shut off at the feed into my house and I’ll be taking a cold shower this morning.
“Should not have happened.” goes without saying... .

Glad to hear it. They say cold showers are healthier for you anyway. You don't use as much water, healthier for your skin, and all that shivering helps you lose weight. Oh if you weren't awake before, you will be.

Our office handled two gas explosion cases about 10 years ago and it killed any desire I had to own a gas stove. The people injured would have been better off dying.

Didn't mean to be too negative. Glad you are ok. Consider going electric

Electric and oil are a lot easier to do in the more southern climes but here in the Northeast where we like to keep our homes somewhat comfortable in the colder monthe (Oct -April) natural gas is far more wallet-friendly.
