A chemical plant in Port Neches, Texas, became a bomb early Wednesday morning. The plant, which is operated by TPC Group, quite literally blew up, and the blast was powerful enough to cause significant damage to nearby homes. The shockwave wreaked havoc in neighborhoods close to the plant, blowing doors clean off their hinges, shattering windows, and causing quite a panic.
In addition to the initial explosion, a massive fire engulfing the facility is sending potentially hazardous chemical plumes across the area. Residents are being advised to remain in their homes and turn off any air circulation systems that might suck the smoke into their homes.
