This is an ugly mess!

Officials Evacuate Area Near Chemical Spill
Earlier tonight, high winds toppled a huge tank of hydrochloric acid. Teams contained it, but now it's eating away at a nearby tank that contains 10,000 gallons of sulfuric acid.

Assistant fire Chief Dennis McCone says it's not if but when that second tank will go.
That was a 13,000 gallon tank that toppled over due to the high winds of a storm that blew through last evening. Fortunatly, the evacuation area doesn't affect my family down there in SLC.
