N.B. : the Halifax explosion was about 0.003 megaton (2.9 kilotons of TNT)

(...) Every building within a 2.6_km (...) radius, over 12,000 in total, was destroyed or badly damaged. (...)

That'll be damage from the blast, rather than the fireball. Can't see blast damage in the video, so I assume that you're talking about the fireball.

Yes, my first comment was about the fireball. Also, I am looking at the news today and there is not much more now than there was yesterday about it ... I will watch the news again to know more in the next few days.

Didn't the radius of damage have a fitting name?

Guess i meant "blast radius". Versus the fireball radius (this one has no fancy name). Just remembered nukemap.
