Aerial views of the Essex-Houston Street fire

EV Grieve reader Chris sends along more photos from the street/sewer/manhole/whatever fire currently burning on Essex at Houston...





Even the workers are impressed with the fire... this fellow is either taking photos or texting — or both!


Per Chris: "Fire department seems to be mostly just watching" for the time being...

Update: As of 2:11 or so, Chris notes that the fire is out.

I bet he's sending a TwitPic to his Twitter followers of the fire with the caption, "Fire...BAD!" It'll probably get lots of RT's!

Way to go DEP. You were supposed to smoke the bacon, not burn it to a crisp.
