But FORCIBLY evacuating people with "5 minutes" to leave???
Local word is that the gas infrastructure is damaged beyond repair and gas leaks are happening. I've also heard sewage is completely backed up & that's why.
Here's the article:

Apparently local word was correct. Article has changed (already) reflecting the gas concerns.
It must be really bad for things to get to this point.edit on 2-11-2012 by nerdyclutzyblonde because: Sourced article has changed.
Well I can say for sure some will call them names for evacuating them and some would if they didn't.
The city workers have probably been working around the clock and emergency workers too.
No one thanks them, instead they are yelling at the power workers and throwing eggs at them...
It only makes sense some areas will become fire prone with broken gas lines and broken sewer may cause concern for health also.
