    Please take a second to look outside your window and let me know if I'm about to die or not.

    @HoustonChron
    We're trying to confirm report by @marcusbetts*of 'very smoky' fire at Chase tower in downtown Houston. #hounews

    @marcusbetts
    .@houstonchron*here is a pic of the Chase building from the 25th floor of Heritage Plaza http://twitpic.com/20ymjr

    I can see it. I don't see anything abnormal.

    I did notice some low clouds this morning while downtown. They were so low that they were below the top floor of the Chase Tower and the Wells Fargo building. Maybe that's what this person is seeing.

    I know it wasn't smoke because it wasn't moving.

    I think he put low clouds + HFD incident report 2 blocks away together and assumed fire.

    Back to my boring day. :\

    So Miguel is in the Chase tower wondering if there's a fire and if he's about to die...asking for someone to post pics?

    Dude. Go outside.

    to be fair, Mig is probably buried in IT hell in the basement.

    Actually, I'm 37 floors up, and if there actually is a fire... I'm not taking the elevator... and I'm sure as hell not taking 37 flights of stairs in the morning if I don't have to.

    You won't burn, sir. I just checked. :eek: There are some low clouds around downtown, though... and your photo was from the morning foggy clouds.

    And I didn't say anything about posting a pic. Just look outside. But this was like 8 hours ago, how is it still on the 1st page?
