Hemel Hempstead Explosion
December 11th, 2005 at 2:32 pm
Well I woke up this morning to the incredible images and news of the explosion of an oil depot near Hemel Hempstead. Thankfully it seems that they were few causalities which is absolutely amazing given the scale of the blast. It apparently happened at 6:03am this morning, local residents have had windows blown out and even structural damage to their homes.
Of course your first thought is “Is this a terrorist attack?”, but fortunately it seems to have just been a spectacular accident. From the images on tv it seems as if parts of London are now under the plume, but looking out of my window in South London it looks like the skies are clear, so I guess the cloud is quite narrow.
