Mainstream media news is banned in my house...I only found out about it while I was having breakfast at the hotel I was staying at for vacation. Had anyone else heard of this? How it exploded is still being determined, but this feels unreal. Houses shouldn't explode like that.

Yes, I saw that and that it was in Pittsburgh. This happens more often than one would think. Thousands a year actually - mostly associated with natural gas.
I record news because I want to know what the world (my family/friends) is being told is going on. Recording it enables me to fast forward.
The latest is that it's a water tank explosion, which feels off to me. If it was a water tank explosion, I'd think it caused something worse down the line (like a gas explosion, like you said, Linda). There are some underground natural gas fracking "issues" in the area that I don't know much about, so if it doesn't have to do with a gas line instillation, it could be something more natural.
I recall something about some earth gases that dissolve in water. Anyway, flame or explosions from water systems is not a new thing at all.
