When you say gas does that mean gasoline or natural gas. Either way it is under a good amount of pressure as it is pushed hundreds of miles. Most likely it will be found out that a backhoe or such scratched the pipe in years past.

As for the tornado sound I would not know but my wife could sure tell you what one sounds like.

We were living in Atlanta at the time. Was a OK day but starting to rain pretty good. I was to go to work at 6PM but the wife wanted me to stay home because she was afraid the weather was turning bad.
I told her what am I suppose to do.... Call my boss and say I am staying home because the weather MAY turn bad. So I left for work.
Within 90 minutes of leaving the house I saw my neighborhood on the local TV because a tornado had just gone threw.
The tornado had come right down my street taking every house out along the way. About 4 doors down it hit a small valley between two hills and went just on the other side of the hill from my house.

To this day (15 years later) this topic may still come up when I least want to hear about it.
The day I went to work and left my wife and 3 small children to fend for themselves in a tornado.
