Driving home from a tasty seafood dinner at Jimmy Wilson's on Westheimer, we noticed a huge fireball over the northern horizon. It looked much closer than it turned out to be: according to KPRC-TV, it's a natural gas explosion near Cy-Springs High School way up in NW Harris County, almost 15 miles away. Amazing.
UPDATE: the Houston Chronicle has more: it involves a 31-inch pipeline. No reported injuries.
