Grain silos are built to withstand explosions (which could occur in them, due to 'dust') , so pretty strong...as proven there.

Yes, I read that they actually worked as a blast fence and the area behind them had much less damage than the other side.

I guess explains the dome explosion and the short lived mushroom cloud) :(

I dont know but to me it looks like half the grain silos exploded so the mushroom cloud could have been grain or dust from the grain, maybe.

I'm no expert on explosives, except when I am in the CR, but that mushroom looked like "vapor" and it dissipated right away???
