**London: Explosion & Fire**
I just heard this on the news, that there was an explosion near East London's Canary Wharf area. Terrorism is apparently NOT suspected, and at this time no reported casualties. Does anyone in Europe have any other info on this?

It's near the Olympic site - an industrial area.

Apparently it's by the bus depots.

This is what my company just sent out to our employees:

Please note that the large fire in East London has been identified as being in a bus garage on an industrial site in the Olympic Park near Waterden Road, E9. There are no reported casualties

Sorry to hear about the accident. Looks like you've got great weather up there. We've received tons of snow in Switzerland today. The kids can already go sledding.
