The boom was heard and felt in Willard's Clear Creek Estates and beyond. "We had calls from as far as 5 miles away," says Willard Fire Chief Ken Scott.

It took a minute for Kelley and her husband to discover the source of the boom. "I told my husband, I said it's too loud to be thunder and there's no weather," says Kelley.
Just stepping outside answered their question. "I walked out and the garage was already just completely engulfed in flames shooting up," Kelley says.
"It looked like the explosion happened in the garage area of the house, so every window, every door on the house had been blown off the hinges upon our arrival," says Chief Scott.

Devastating earthquakes, flash-floods occurring with increasing regularity in most every region of Earth, Spring snowfalls, hailstones the size of baseballs, tornadoes in the Middle East, wildfires raging in northern latitudes, meteors exploding in the atmosphere, and residential/industrial buildings exploding all over the place...
The Powers That Be tell us that that is all due to 'man-made global warming', and that the environmental chaos can be arrested or mitigated by implementing their judicious solutions.
