I had just gotten out of the shower, and was getting dressed for work, when I heard a loud explosion. I looked out the window and saw a large plume of smoke.
I went out with my digital camera and recorded the video I posted on my YouTube channel. I don't know what exploded yet, and I don't have time to check because it is almost time for me to start the job. I'll probably find out later what happened.
The video is HERE or at the link above.
looks like electrical substation to just the right of the fire/smoke.
You tell him, dale.

Or Marine.
Sort of like SMEAC. One of those mnemonics that says with you forever.
It was owned by some guy named Heisenberg.
Lol. Of course the article is dated Oct 2012.
Perhaps a training fire at the EAF ?
When I play with gutters above ~7 ft off the ground, I take the time to erect and tear down scaffolding. Life is too short already...
Does anybody know where Art Bell is this day?
either the Philippines or Parumph Nevada?
Neil makes US feel like nOObs, Dale.
Mentally, I had Blythe closer to Needles (and Searchlight) than it is.
Western Area Lower Colorado has a 161KV substation at Blythe.
As does Imperial Irrigation District.
Poster did.
Wonder if they'll mention this on the show? They just might. Who knows.
I love Kook to Kook for late-night driving and housework. It's great radio, totally off the wall and goofy.
Since you mentioned it: any good references for cheap scaffolding along with cheap shipping? I need to be doing quite a bit of work on My mum's place soon and through all the next year so I was thinking that perhaps relying on her old wobbling-about ladder was not the most secure way of attempting to accomplish that. The sources I have seen so far though do not list it as at all cheap, unless you are a contractor and can write it off as a business expense perhaps.
That Well to Hell thing recorded by the Russian scientists is really creepy.
I bit the bullet and bought some new a decade or more ago. It's earned its keep.
Given the medical deductibles associated with 0bamaDontCare, it's relatively cheap.
(I had tried building some with dimensional wood and surplus bolts, but a near tornado busted it all up. Plus I quickly found out the 5 or 6 ft stages were way easier to use than ~8 ft. ones. If I'm lucky, I get my kid to come over and help with the setups and teardowns - it's way faster with two peeps.)
