As of 8PM the bomb squad is on site and the fire dept is being held back.
Two injured taken to hospital.
Sound like either a meth lab or home grown bomb makers.

Well it wasn’t a little boom, it was a major explosion. There was literally just a hole where the garage once was.

I had a sump truck fill the shop next door from the shop I was working in with fumes from Aviation fuel, then when the furnace kicked in it ignighted the fumes. It was a pretty big explosion but nothing compared to this. This one reminded me of when the newfies decided to blast some rocks on the banks of the Athabasca in Fort McMurray to build the new water treatment plant. Little too much dynamite b’ys! Shook the whole town!

Disclaimer: I’m not sure it was newfies but it makes the story a little funnier.

Default PMQ explosion in Greisbach 1987’ish

I remember back when i was a base brat a pmq blew up due to a pilot light going out. Happened on a weekend and the parents two kids (son & daughter) were sleeping in the basement at the time, both were killed instantly. The early morning furnace ignited and near levelled the house.
Both parents survived.
If anyone remembers that.
This is going off memory. I was 15 at the time.

When I was a teenager, a house blew up a few neighborhoods over, aprox a 5 min car drive. It was a hot summer night and I was in bed in my basement room with the windows open. Old bungalow with windows that flipped open, no screens. When that house blew up, all the windows shook and the basement ones got knocked from their open position. Amazing power from that far away.

I met dad upstairs and said what was that, he said something went boom big time. We could hear sirens right away as the fire hall was just up the street, we thought it was from the refineries but the sirens were going the other way.

Had a house blow up in Red Deer in Deer Park in the 90's. That was quite the thump.
