What a great thing to wake up too...

So the gas company is doing some work on their high pressure line. They do it every couple of years, and after they do their repairs they pressurize it and test for leaks. Afterward they have to purge the line, which is what they are doing this morning. First time it was some cause for concern, now that we know it'd not that bad, only sounds like a jet engine running at full bore! This video was taken about five miles from the valve, and if you look closely you can see it blowing in the air around 50'.
