    Dustin,

    You were much closer to the mishap that I was. My work is about a mile from there (closer to the runway) and we were told to evacuate. Hope everyone in that area made it out all right.

    Someone leaving work had sent me an email saying there was black smoke looked like on Hwy 182. Short time after, someone said there was an explosion at Tri Chem and we had to evacuate. I saw a couple of the explosions as I was leaving.
