[QUOTE="CreviceSucker, post: 568656, member: 1804"] If you look at the aerial photos its apparent that the huge grain silo deflected 30 - 50 % of the blast away from the city buildings behind it , they were lucky , it could have been twice as bad if not for the silo taking the brunt and deflecting a good part of the blast wave upwards instead of across the ground. The infrastructure to the other side of the silo got it worse but that side had less public buildings. The downside is the destruction of the grain silo leaves them starving again [/QUOTE]
