A huge explosion tore through an oil refinery in Big Spring, Texas, about midway between Dallas and El Paso. The blast rocked surrounding houses for miles, and the subsequent fire is still burning. One worker was injured and all employees are accounted for. No word yet on the cause of the explosion. The photo is courtesy of CNN's iReport program, and taken by viewer Larry Bates.

1That is scary! Every report I've seen this morning has only mentioned the one person injured and no fatalities. Let's hope that's the extent!
