Hi Everybody,
Just heard of a huge chemical factory fire in the State of Texas. The town / city of Bryan has been asked to evacuate. More news when I get it...
Best regards,
Steve
UPDATE:
The chemical fire is in a fertilizer warehouse of the El Dourado Chemical Company. The company is afraid that ammonium nitrate will irritate skin and lungs to the population of the town of Bryan in East Texas and also residents of Brazos County.
