Everyone,
I’m following the reports of a recent RV fire in Manassas, VA which quickly spread to the house 10 ft away from it. The house was totally destroyed, but the occupants were able to evacuate safely. This happened only 60 miles from me, so it’s in the local news cycle.

Prince William County Fire and Rescue responded to a 911 call about a fire less than 10 feet from the home as well as an explosion.
Fire investigators believe the fire was most likely caused by a battery charger that was in use on the family’s RV, but the cause is still under investigation.
The large boom neighbors heard probably was from the fire reaching the RV’s propane tank, Prince William County’s fire marshal said.
Fire crews were called after the windy conditions caused the fire to reach the family’s home.
The Bedenbaugh family said they’re trying to cope with the loss of their home of 43 years and beginning the clean-up process.
Back to me…
I’ll update the cause of the fire once I find out more.
Let’s play safe out there… Mike
