I heard when the transformer at US 59 @ Kirby exploded. I was at school when I heard the explosions. All of us students were shoked to see black smoke climbing into the air. The electricity went out and we were all terrified. The school finally decided, two hours later, to release us. I took the adbantage and took a picture of it from Lamar High School from the third floor...
It was a shoking scene.
