Hope no one gets injured working that one. About all anyone could do there is stand back and watch.

I haven't seen any smoke today , I know 3 people who lost summer toys stored in there,2 boats and a S2000. I guess it's still under investigation. The only injury reported was a fireman sprained an ankle.

Any investigation as to a cause? Election related, midnight lightning?

I heard from a fireman that was there, it was possibly a light bulb fell on some cardboard . The guy i work with was running the line from the ladder truck and said there was a shit load of gayloards (4x4x4 boxes) of styrene pellets , after the roof caved in he was able to get water inside , when he hit those styrene pellets with water they erupted into huge fireballs from dispersing the contents. That building was made to with stand a lot of heat ,it was the old box treat facility ,they would basically stack coils of steel and then lower a box with some kind of heating element inside and heat treat the coils right on the floor of the building .
