HUGE GAS REFINERY EXPLOSION IN PUERTO RICO

Thu Oct 22, 2009, 10:17 PM
  • Mood: Stunned
  • Listening to: the radio news
  • Reading: The Silmarillion - JRR Tolkien
  • Watching: the explosion videos
at 12:30 AM a gas tank exploded in the Gulf refinery near the Buchanan Base in Puerto Rico. i can see the fire and smoke from my apartment which is pretty far away. it is still burning and 2 tanks have already exploded, possibly more by now. there is already a lot of documentation, it is scary with all the stressful situations occurring in the island. there is a lot of speculation of how it started, some said an air plain fell, others a malfunction.

there is so much smoke, they are not dealing with the fire right now, they are trying to keep the remaining tanks cool so they don't explode and make it worse.

here is the documentation for those interested:
