This is correct, as the explosion was as a result of burning methane, and the burn was LIT by the wick traveling back along the wisp of methane that had been blow up and southwest by the prevailing westerlies over Siberia. What witnesses saw was the burn off of methane that had disbursed into the air and was not sandwiched between burning masses so that its heat had NOWHERE to go, the basis of exploding, rather than burning, gas bombs. The process was:

  1. methane gas hisses out from under frozen permafrost that had been cracked like a sheet of glass due to earth stress, pre-shock to the earthquake that was recorded during the Tunguska explosion.
  2. methane gas mixes with the air as it rises, followed by more hissing air, so that a HUGE cloud of methane has formed in the atmosphere over Tunguska, equivalent to all the natural gas at any given time in the US.
  3. a wick of methane that has drifted upward and southeast, driven by the prevailing westerlies, is sparked due to the air movement, the same process that causes lighting due to rapid air movement during storms.
  4. the lit methane burns rapidly back along the which, the "meteor" that was seen, lights all the gas that is encounters but before all but the nearest witnesses can see it, those who DIED in the explosion, an overburn over gasses closer to the surface prevents heat from rising and an explosive situation occurs.
