Flat to rolling hills in the region. Depending what knoll or berm your home is behind, an explosion at ground level might go above or around you.

Not good. Hate to see industrial accidents/failures like this. People just trying to eek out a living, and those in the region just trying to go about life.
Again, not good.
Hope there isn’t a big loss of life here.

My friends in Venus and Waxahachie all thought a plane crashed. I am in Red Oak....it reminded me of the night West blew up. The roof felt like it was going to lift off for 10 seconds.

Does anyone think it might be the handiwork of Green-weenie Eco-terrorists?

Wonder if there is where they manufacture their oilfield explosives.
Shape charges for perforating guns, sample taker charges, primer cord, etc.
