UK Explosion: Residents Warned Of Heavy Cloud
As a result of the explosion earlier
this morning a heavy cloud hanging over the refinery is now
moving slowly in an easterly direction. There is nothing to
suggest the cloud is toxic but as a precaution we are asking
residents in Hemel Hempstead, and the surrounding areas
towards St Albans to keep their windows and doors close and
stay in. All updates in relation to the nature of the cloud
and the incident will be placed on the tape immediately. We
are asking people not to contact the emergency services
unless they have a genuine call for assistance. Everything
possible is being done at this stage.
