One of the chemicals has a flash point of 53 degrees Fahrenheit. They are stored at 30. Once it hits that temp, it is a runaway reaction.

I think you want to look at the SADT (self-accelerating decomposition temperature) if you are concerned about a runaway reaction.

I use some of these Chems like Sodium Hydroxide, buty acid, methyl, sulfuric, acetone. I have to keep some in a fridge or in a fire locker.

I've worked w reactive chemicals many years. OPs require special handling, most times refrig. Info on handling at http://www.luperox.com/en/safety/

There are also a couple of NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS in Texas too - nobody has mentioned them.

I don't think they're within the hurricane/flood zone.

Just the one on the coast but looks like storm has passed by there already.
