Saw that.  Any clue what the alien-looking green stuff is?

I can't reconcile those photos - did the parking lot disappear.

Same!  I'm trying to figure out where the road was...

looks like a lot of it is gone and the rest is covered up by the dirt from the big ass hole that was left.  before looks to be overhead, and after looks to be from about a 45 degree angle.

that's not the building that blew up. it looks to have been possibly a warehouse/storage building a little ways away.

You can see the remains of the road on this one.  Pics pulled off CNN story.

Google map the area and the company is set on a lot of acreage with several buildings spread out.

One of my cousins runs a mission/rescue there, about a mile from the plant, and he said the blast blew the doors of the chapel open and he has some hearing issues now.

Most munitions plants are designed and arranged like this.  I worked on and off as a contractor at Remington and their powders mix plants are arranged in a geometric fashion to minimize risk of chain reaction in case of catastrophic failure.  It has happened there, but nothing on this scale.

Scroll down and  find the 11 second video and listen to the sound it made from two miles away.

One of my classmates lives right down the road. I've turkey hunted for years in that area.

mr.zorak

Hickman County has some of the best hunting land in the state.  My brother's father in law's farm he hunts on is in Kimmins (north Lewis County) which is on the Hickman border.

With the magnitude of that blast finding folks bodies and parts may be darn near impossible .  Just tragic.

May not have landed yet.

Sorry it hits so close to home. Tragic situation.

For $7 mil I'll put a webcam in front of my shitter so I can answer fan questions while I drop the Longhorns off in College Station.

Once authored a post that critics claimed, "Was notaslibro level."

I guess there's no better way to describe the situation, but missing doesn't seem quite accurate.

Permanently missing may be more accurate.  Just fucking gone.

Man that's sad.

My cousin that lives there, his younger brother lives in Mussel Shoals, Alabama, 105 miles due south of there, and he said he heard it from his deer stand.

The arial photo is pretty much what you'd expect from something like that.  Total devastation.
