    Well, I woke up 4am I heard a big bomb and my room was all light up red lmao!. I live like 10 mins away from this place. Most of the area around it is evacuated.. but my area barely made it.

    Here are pics and videos.

    First time I am hearing about this...

    That explosion was certainly an eyebrow raiser.

    The power of that blast doesn't evne remotely compare to the poewr you'd feel if it was an actual nuclear explosion.

    Wow. This is the first I've heard of this. I didn't watch the news last night or this morning, but I hope the damage wasn't too bad.

    Mmh, looks like a pretty messed up thing to be close to.
    Did it burn down a lot of facilities? Or could they keep the fire controlled?
