the sound is an alarm of some sort but it does look like the liquid is on fire

lol I didn't ask what the sound was ( I can't hear it anyway lol) but do they say what it is that is flowing and catching on fire?

According to a buddy on FB that is not just water.. that is Ammonia, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid and phosphoric acid.

I can smell what ever chemical that is in Mansfield looks like a big ass black cloud over us!

That's probably not a good idea to be inhaling that.

gas mask and hazmat suit

Geez I cant fathom waht the first responders are thinking/doing. Prayers go out to the Fire personel. Very HAZMAT!

Ammonia, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid and phosphoric acid. Thats what the press conference confirmed. The truck was a LARGE Ennis ladder truck. They were trying to get it out of there but those trucks wont move until the ladder is stowed and they couldn't get it docked in time. Its gonna be interesting to see how they handle the runoff from the fire...thats some nasty shit in there.

Wait till the fire gets to those tank cars. The ground is going to shake when they explode.

Unfortunately, you might have your wish. Right in the middle of a business day at that plant, fatalities can be expected. That HAZMAT-filled smoke can't be great either. Looks like it is going in the direction of my house. I already told my wife and kids not to go home and to stay at her parents' house tonight.

They said no fatalities at the plant, luckily. Looks like its going slightly NW from the 35/287 junction, towards midlothian. The life schools and one in desoto did evacuate too though. We are gonna keep clear just to be safe.

They are protected by the union.
