Live just south of here, sounded like a bomb went off. Checked the SFD map and was surprised at the sound vs. distance.

I don’t know if the explosion was related to the fire but a couple people reported it to 911.

  Any word on the WS Food Pantry? Are they still open for folks today?

    That’s an unrelated building across Morgan.

I heard it as well in Sunrise Heights. I just assumed it was fireworks but I did wonder why someone would set them off at 9am…

Huh, I heard a bomb like sound this morning I thought was odd. Didn’t check time but this tracks. Wonder if it’s possible what I heard from Queen Anne was this…
