i witnessed a fire accident at 330am today 060608 those living at blk 466 sembawang drive or along the sungei river might have seen a bright orange glare and heard fire engines, or even smelled the smoky air... was about 3am and the weather was pretty cooling and there were mild lighenings and soft thunder sounds, so i tot it was prob gonna rain but suddenly a very bright orange glare shone right into my room curious, i looked out the window to check wad it was... only to see a fierce fire emerging from a nearby factory juz across the road away from my house 4 fire engines and several police cars came took them an hour plus to control the fire but juz when the fire seemed to be under controlled, a sudden explosion will follow and a fierce ball of flames will appear. this happened for an hour... the sky was very red and bright, with very visible dark smokes arising to the sky from where i stood and view ( i live at 18th floor ), it looked like a volcano erupting... fire died down at about 5am. nt sure if anyone in my neighbourhood saw this but i was still awake at 3 and i happen to see the flames go wild... hope no casualties ** sorry for the blur image i forgot to switch on to anti shake function =)
