  • Why was the cloud red/orange - it it the colour of the stored material?

  • Red/orange is the heat of the explosion, nothing more. At least we know it's not nuclear.

    If I was a gambling man (I'm not) I'd put money on ammonium nitrate being involved in this, given the size and scale of the explosion and the fact it happened at a port (Texas City anyone?).
