Hard to call this good news, but its much better than the original number of 60...
WEST, Texas — Texas authorities said Friday evening that 14 bodies had been recovered from the massive fertilizer plant explosion Wednesday night and that only one or two people remained missing.
Five of the dead were with the West Fire Department, and four were emergency medical service workers.
The number of missing and unaccounted-for people was lowered significantly from the 60 that U.S. Sen. John Cornyn had announced mid-day.

Interesting additional information. From the video, that explosion seemed massive. Apparently it was.
Pentagon explosives experts told the Los Angeles Times that an explosion involving 270 tons of ammonium nitrate would be larger than almost any conventional U.S. weapon.
