Holy shit look at this vehicles with containers and cars and trucks burning.
This is massive - a shingles company - eighteen wheelers about 30 to 40 of them exploding.

(15,807 posts)Thick black smoke ad lots of flames - you can literally watch the trucks and eighteen wheelers and cars explode - it's a huge fire.
Folks are being evacuated including a flea market, a major Food and Produce warehouse, etc.
Miami fire and rescue are begging the water company to increase the water pressure - and calling for more units.
Wonder what started it.
Sucks that the water system isn't handing the firefighters enough pressure. That'll hamper efforts. Hopefully there is a neighboring water system that can help out with supply.
