The Blue Rino propane refill/canister reclamation facility on County Road 448 just outside of Tavares, Fl. had a major fire on Monday evening about 10:30 PM. I live about two miles, as the crow flies, from the facility. I did not hear a thing, and found out about the fire when I woke up on Tuesday morning.
I guess that the mound at the county landfill shielded us from the blast, as I had went to bed at 10:00 PM. I guess that I am a sound sleeper.
Tried to pass by the facility at 2:00 PM Tuesday and the road is closed in front of the facility.
People have reported that they heard and felt the blast as far away as Lady Lake, which is north of Leesburg, Fl.
