This one is probably very easy, but I'm tired, it's early and I have to go to work. This picture is part of the results of a larger event. What was that event?

Looks like the results of a hurricane, but not sure of which one. There was one that hit the FL keys in 1935, but it was unnamed.

is it the test site for the atom bomb?

It is not a test site for nuclear weapons, nor is it the results of a hurricane.

1947 SS Grandcamp explosion in Texas City.

qmax is correct. This explosion is the reason my mom's family wound up in Texas City/LaMarque. My grandfather moved the family there because there was work available.
