Explaining bad news to toddlers?

My son is two and a half. His best friend is a three year old boy, who also has a 5 year old sister and an infant sister. Last week, their house burned down, but fortunately there were no injuries. We just found out yesterday (we had been away). We haven't told our son yet; we certainly want to wait until he can see his friend face to face.

How much is a toddler ready to understand about things like this?
