For those of you not following chemical news, there is a company in Garden Grove, California (near Los Angeles) called GKN Aerospace that has a dangerous chemical situation. A huge tank of methyl methacrylate, a “highly volatile” substance used in the production of plastics started overheating and was in danger of exploding. The fire department has been spraying it down. It has now sprung a leak, which is considered a good thing as the pressure has been reduced and the heat is starting to lessen. So of course I felt I had to check this out with my trusty reporter, What3Words.

The tank is nestled against two other tanks. The W3W coordinates for this cluster are:
umbrella.crispy.island
heavy.longer.mushroom
payback.shared.erupted
sulked.reveal.dent

So reading those tea leaves, what we have is a vessel with a dent that when it has erupted will turn the area into a crispy island under a mushroom cloud. How fun.
