Seems there are small explosions going off right before the big one. Reminds me of the rocket fuel plant in Utah?? along time ago.

The source of the explosion was a major fire at a warehouse for firecrackers near the port in Beirut, the state-run National News Agency reported. Local news reported large numbers of wounded people.
