This was due to a propane tank from a gas grill exploding on the rear deck of the home. My friend's house is intact, but there is a lot of smoke damage in the main part of the house. Their deck is gone, as is their sunroom, and many irreplaceable items. The propane tank's valve was turned off. Be careful out there, folks. This weather can cause crazy stuff to happen.
