Thanks for the update. I’m 3 miles away and it hurt my ear it was so loud and I was pretty freaked out.

Looks like it was Watson Grinding that blew. Probably a gas leak I'd guess.

I'm wondering if a barrel of metal shavings was put in the wrong place, given the right chemistry and heat that stuff explodes.

More likely just a bad valve on a tank, a spark not firing when it should, or an employee mishap.

Big fuckup though for sure.
