That's a new one for me as well. God that would absolutely suck.

Reminds me of the explosion in California a few years ago: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Bruno_pipeline_explosion

This is the kind of thing the IoT and hacking could do..

Had one in Colorado a year or two ago, killed the homeowners and damn near vaporizer the house. Can't imagine what it looks like at that large of a scale.

Probe is looking at sensors that could increase pressure if needed. Wonder if this was a hack?

Yep. I hope it's not (and there are countless other plausible explanations), but if it is, maybe it will get people to seriously start addressing grid vulnerability and resiliency. Right now it's just a lot of academics and talk.

Specifically a sensor that was on a gas line that was taken out of service. If the line was cut and the pressure dropped, it could have signaled a regulator to increase pressure in the area.
