I checked on Google Earth.

I looks as though that address is near a major interstate interchange.

Odd observation on my part but while watching the live feed I was amazed by the number of birds you folks have in DFW area

I had the same thought.

WFAA showing burned out cars. Also, reporting grass fires on other side of freeway.

I am going out on a limb but couldnt this be a diversion tactic by the islamonazis? If there is a big court case they could blow this place up and get all fire and rescue personnel there and then hit somewhere else and have max casualties with not alot of rescue around to help? Just me being paranoid.. Islamic tinfoil hat time!

Watching FOX....

Several real crowd-pleasers...

I hope all the fire/rescue & other first responders will be careful fighting this one.

Looks like the small building next door is starting to go up now.

Probably the flight path on approaches or departures into and out of Love Field.

I thinks it’s I 35, they have shut it down.

Now saying the fire started when a tank on the back of a truck near the building exploded.

I think the terrorism trial is at the Cabell Federal Building, not the Crowley Courthouse.

This explosion is not on top of either, but it has the freeways shut down and downtown paralyzed.

The interchange you see is I-30 and I-35. Two of the heaviest traveled highways in Dallas. Both are completely shut down.

BUilding next door is definately involved now. Large flames on the back side and heavy smoke pouring out of the doors — many vehicles in and around that building, so it may be a garage of some type — could see some vehicle explosion/fires at that location shortly.

Southwest flies out of Love Field, which is not too far north of downtown Dallas. The smoke could be a problem.

Thanks. I couldn’t tell from the initial reports, but now I’m oriented.
