I was at San Jacinto at the time. I was heading to my car after one of my classes then I just hear this large BOOM! and the ground shook. Initially thought it was a building being demolished. When I whipped around I saw the plume of smoke and also started to see flames I knew this was serious.

The roar carries for miles. I heard one once in my apartment miles away and it stays roaring.
