No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful. -
The amount of water that would need to be applied to get the powder to dissolve would be more than what a fire fighting effort would be typically able to supply. Hose stream on a pile of Ammonium Nitrate would result in the outer layer of powder pile into a hardened cake.

The dynamics of the deflagration to detonation reaction are not really well known. Hence my hypothetical that the mateiral was transformef into a shock sensitive mass. Regardless, large quantities on fire are always a bad thing though, particularly if they are confined to promulgate shock waves. As for the miniscule endothermic removal of heat from water/Ammonium Nitrate reaction is concerned, it is far far dwarfed by the oxidation reaction as to be fairly meaningless."Just puttin on the foil" - Jeff Hanson

that's really a small total compared to the blast, looks like the fire was going long enough before the explosion for many people to get away thank goodnessAny views I may express here are personal and certainly do not in any way reflect the views of my employer. Tis the rising of the moon..
Look, I just don't anymore, okay?Comment

That you think such an explosion is a small town would be more devastating. An explosion like this in a big city would likely kill more people. And, contrary to your amazing ignorance, people in cities know other people too.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect.
