I assume that is oil in those tanks?

Update from the City of Deer Park:
As of 5:30AM, the City of Deer Park has received confirmation that no air quality readings conducted in response to the Intercontinental Terminals Company (ITC) incident have exceeded action levels.
In light of this information, the City has made the decision to lift the Shelter-in-Place order and to re-open State Highway 225 with the public. Portions of Independence Parkway will remain closed until further notice.
The City has just received notification that all Deer Park Independent School District campuses will be closed today, March 18.
Emergency Services Director Robert Hemminger indicated that this is still a dynamic incident and air monitoring will continue. Residents are encouraged to monitor City social media for updates.

Intercontinental Terminal Companies in Deer Park. Could be anything in those tanks. Not just oil.

This was most likely caused by switch loading.

Passed by there on way home from BR a bit ago. Had to reroute through LaPorte to the beltway because of it. Could see it from way far away on I10 coming into town from the east.

State Park maintains/protects, there's a lot more land than what you see at the 3 main attractions

I spoke there 5-6 years ago for San Jac day and I rode around with a ranger

Think it was a heater tube rupture. Chem plant.

Nothing like a bleve to end your weekend.

He’s referring to the XOM explosion on Saturday, not ITC.
