Place is a little more than halfway between Austin and Dallas, making it a good hour and a half, maybe hour and 45 minutes drive north of where I'm at along I-35 - too far away to hear or feel the explosion from here.
News reports are sketchy, but earlier they were saying over 100 injured and "between 5 and 15" feared dead, with some VFD crew members "unaccounted for."
Overnight a south wind was keeping the smoke plume blowing north, but by 7 it was already changing direction as a line of storms and a cold front were coming through. Haven't seen an update for a couple of hours . . .
