Near where I work, at 42nd & 3rd.
(Another explosion rumored to have occurred in financial district, but no confirmation of this from media...however a few people on the street have heard this story).
Word is the uptown one was a transformer that blew due to flooding, but it looks much larger than that.
Not trying to start a panic, just giving news. We are being told to evacuate the area.
Will not be able to update, as I will not have internet until I get home. Just want people to know.
UPDATE (6:36pm) We have been told it was a transformer. Officials have anbnounced it as not terrorist related.
