I just hung up with a client located on the E40's in Manhattan. Tons of sirens to the point where he felt compelled to check on what was up.
He came back to the phone and said there had just been a massive explosion near their building, and that they were evacuating.
Any NYC Freepers have any information on this? Happened at 6 PM EDT or there abouts.

Looks like in the east 40s there is a HUGE cloud of billowing something. I was hoping for cream cheese. Mmmmm. Billowing cream cheese.

Definitely nto a transformer. But there are huge underground steam mains that office building use. Probably one of the big ones blew.

Now Fox live video is saying white and brown color and police are telling reporters to leave because the smoke is continuing full force.

It’s steam. And that brown stuff is asbestos laden mud.
