    Propylene, apparently. Shouldn't be a chemical hazard to worry with.

    Company was fined $8k in 2013 for the way they stored hazardous chemicals.

    $8,000? Man, that's a game changing amount of money for a company right there. I'm sure it sent a loud and clear message.




    Or not.

    I heard it Gessner and Westheimer area. Immediately rolled back over though. Had already forgotten about it til I saw the thread.

    You two may want to invest in an alarm system for your home. Or a very large dog.

    We (my wife and I) live maybe 3, 3.5 miles from the blast site. She said the blast shook our apartment. I didn't feel the blast, but was in such deep dream sleep; I did wake and thought I simply had to go pee. But by coincidence, it was at exactly the same time as the explosion. So, it woke me, but I didn't know it was the cause.

    More than three miles and shook an apartment building. Damn.
