For a bit of comparison the flare that lit off is every bit of 300ft tall, and the fire was above it.
When I went in to get my truck today it was very eerie. A plant that was always full of nice, hard working, friendly but always dirty and greasy workers that wave to you no matter who you are... Peddling there 3 wheel bikes to their job. These guys truly work hard for their dollar... But it was now empty.
The whole plant, that is usually well manned, and cleaned was reduced to a flooded, empty ghost town. Water filled pretty much every area except for the road ways. They sprayed the fire from 8:40am until at least 2:00pm. It was like a scene from a war movie. Trucks half submerged in water, trucks with tool boxes open, doors open, windows down... Forklifts and rigs with a load in suspension. Hard hats, gloves, goggles, and glasses littered the roads from where people just ran and let go of whatever was weighing then down. It was as if the rapture came and every task they were doing was just paused. All these images are burned into my memory and I hope it is nothing I have to witness again.
