Its as bad as it sounds. An ammonia nitrate exploded.
I was about 45 miles away when it occured. I heard the blast when it happened but I didn't know what it was til I got in the truck and heard the reports.
Pray for those folks. Injuries in the 100s and unknown number of deaths.

Don't think it's a production plant. Sounds like its a retail place like a Co-Op,jimmy sanders or something like that. Think the fire got to the anhydrous ammonia tanks.

Prayers for the families and those injured in that town.. You know that place was probably the lifeblood of that area..

Re: Explosion at Tx chemical plant
Obviously a bad deal. I'm sure in a few months they will blame some low level employee for leaving a valve turned the wrong way or some fertilizer vapor cloud type deal.
My beef is with Sean hannity. I was just listening to his talk show (trying to wean myself of talk radio due to the blood pressure issues) and that clown was just dead set that Boston, Ricin letters, and this plant were connected. I will agree that there is some remote probability however small that this may be the case but IMO he needs to shut the F up. Talk about unnecessary hyping. This MO is typical for him so I would normally let it slide, but he basically argued with his "expert" guest that there just has to be a connection. Each of the guest I heard tried to tell him to cool his jets, but he wasn't having that. The final straw was he repeatedly referenced his theory, talked over the "experts" supporting his theory, and then would say "I mean I'm not implying anything I'm just saying you HAVE to assume these incidents are related. What a clown. I'm over the media in general including most of the conservative media.
