The news is a couple days old and happened just a couple miles from where I live, so I don't know why I didn't post this earlier...I guess it still hasn't totally sunk in for me yet.
Four people died, everyone else managed to escape but still lost a lot. The relatives of mine who live in San Bruno were not directly affected (their homes are safe and undamaged), but some of my aunts are nurses at the nearby hospitals that are treating the victims.
I've driven through the now-devastated neighborhood plenty of times before, even went to kindergarten at a church near the area. It's also worth noting that this is not too far from the San Andreas faultline, like less than a mile away.
