Looks like there was a significant wind. When rigs are parked with only a few feet between their adjoining slides, it can happen pretty fast.

True...and that part of the state has a lot of pine that burns even when green. But still...whst a nightmare. They didn't mention if any propane tanks blew. With hose bibs every 40-50 feet I'm guessing they did what they could

Hmmm...explosion before fire. Sounds like a Propane leak filled a unit and ignited. No injuries so that is always good. Maybe it was a seasonal unit with owners away
