This was less than 2 miles from my house... Did not see the smoke until later as I was in the shower getting ready for work.

2. Wow, so you live in Dubai? when I was about 14, a fireworks warehouse blew up 3 blocks away

from my house in the middle of the night.. it threw me out of my bed, but by the time I'd gathered myself
to run out of my bedroom, my parents had already run outside .. pretty scary memory.

I thought it was a nuclear attack.
