'Like a nuclear bomb': Deadly fertilizer plant blast devastates Texas town

(CNN) -- The full extent of the devastation will have to wait until the light of day Thursday. But residents of the small Texas town of West already know what to expect.
"There are a lot of people that got hurt," West Mayor Tommy Muska forewarned Wednesday night. "There are a lot of people that will not be here tomorrow."
A massive explosion at a fertilizer plant on the edge of the town killed an estimated five to 15 people, wounded more than 160, leveled dozens of homes and prompted authorities to evacuate half their community of 2,800.
"It was like a nuclear bomb went off," Muska said. "Big old mushroom cloud."
The Wednesday night blast shook houses 50 miles away and measured as a 2.1-magnitude seismic event, according to the United States Geological Survey.
Officials offered differing figures for the death toll, with Sgt. William Patrick Swanton of the nearby Waco Police Department saying between five and 15 people had died.
But fire officials fear that the number of casualties could rise as high as 60 to 70 dead, said Dr. George Smith, the emergency management system director of the city.

So what was the first explosion?

Not saying something else is going on, just haven't heard about a first explosion.

Didn't Kim Jong Un have a map with Austin, Texas as a target on it? West, Texas isn't too terribly far from there. Just sayin'.
