This one hasn't hit the news yet that I'm aware of. This was right next to the explosion as you can see.

Local news is reporting 60-70 dead so far and hundreds injured. They are evacuating the entire town out of fear of more explosions.

West is a small community of 2800.

Honest...not a tinfoiler, but...do they have any idea how this fire started? I know fertilizer (and it’s dust—like grain and sugar) are exceptionally volatile. The timing of this tragic event is just scary (w/Waco anniversary this week.)

Prayers up for the families and those injured.
Reap the whirlwind, if it was on purpose.

There have been some extremely high winds and lightening in that area this afternoon. I haven’t heard anything official but I wouldn’t be surprised if that may be the trigger.

There's gonna be a weather shift later tonight with expected wind speeds around 35mph - am hoping they get any fires put out, pronto.
As an aside, the Texas City blast where a ship load of fertilizer went off was on
April 16, 1947. Ugh.

scary and sad video
But he’s now famous on youtube!!! Obviously that was far more important to him than the safety of his daughter.

I don’t think he could have known what kind of force that explosion could have had.

Five West firefighters and a policeman, I think, were fighting the fire for about 2 hours when it blew. It is thought that they were immediately killed.
They are reporting that 60 to 70 have died, and around 200 have been injured.
So sad. West is the place people stop off to get kolaches when driving between Dallas and Austin.
There is no sense that this was anything more than an accident.
