Several wildfires are scorching the Texas panhandle with thousands evacuated
Wildfires sweeping across Texas briefly forced the evacuation of America’s main nuclear weapons facility as strong winds, dry grass and unseasonably warm temperatures fed the blaze.
Pantex Plant, the main facility that assembles and disassembles America’s nuclear arsenal, shut down its operations on Tuesday night as the Windy Deuce fire roared towards the Potter County location.
Well that’s fucking alarming. For all of the money the DoD vacuums up, they can’t handle a wildfire near a nuclear weapons factory where they should absolutely expect a wildfire? What’s next, a California nuke factory that wasn’t built to withstand earthquakes?
