For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.To me its seems as the thermostat has failed and causing the water in the tank to "boil" and the only way the hot water to escape is that way. Be careful because this can be sometimes dangerous. I have once read that the same thing happened to a couple, and the tank in the loft fell throught the ceiling, scalding and killing them in their bed.
I dont want to seem alarmist, but get it checked out.
