> There was a loud explosion earlier this morning, which may or may not be related, but there aren't any power outages.

Loud explosions happen all the time in SF. Particularly in the Lower Nob Hill / Tenderloin area.

I lived an Lower Nob Hill for many years and heard countless explosions, most often in the middle of the night (2am-4am) or early hours (6am). Often times these explosions M80s-M1000s being dropped and detonated.

Someone was arrested back in 2019 and the explosions reduced dramatically.

This article[0] goes into detail about it.
