There was a series of explosions at Formosa Plastics at around 3:05 today...
I work 5 miles upstream from the explosion... our safety supervisor was on the radio with one of the supervisors there and he confirmed that there were 3 explosions... this is really huge and really bad... lucikly it happened in an area that does not generally have much human traffic, but looking at the live feed from Houston's Channel 2 choppers, it is horrible...
My mother and her friend saw the explosion from a mile away while travelling up highway 35 into Point Comfort... said it was horrible... my mother saw the second one a few seconds later, her friend said she saw a third one, my mother did not...
It's a mess, keep these people in your prayers...
My step-father was withing 50 yards of this area at 11:00 today... thank God he went home early...
