Big fire in downtown Raleigh, NC!
(Excerpt) Read more at wral.com ...
Storm? Lightning?
Don’t know the cause. Not weather-related, though. It’s apparently a building under construction.
Terrorism??
Don’t know.
Buildings under construction fires and explosions have become fairly common.
The live stream at the link is now over. It appears to be one enormous fire!
It was! Caught the beginning of their coverage and it was massive then. They showed a side view up close that should the whole building engulfed at once. ABC11 is now covering. The aerial shots from the choppers is impressive still.

Just drove north up Saunders St. to I-40 a little after 10pm and saw the massive smoke. Wow. Prayers for anyone down there.
