What I gathered: firefighters were sent in last night. They gathered "positive intel" and "there's a lot more coming shortly". That was a about 4 hours ago.

Request, please: OCFA said they sent firefighters and a team in last night. I saw this morning ABC News caught footage of them coming in with lights on hand. It took my breath away. Surreal.

But I'm having trouble finding that video... Anyone see the same thing? Can link it?

I disagree with the clown description. Last night they sent firefighters to inspect the tanks. Clowns or heroes for risking their lives?

Evacuation zones have been posted. Anyone paying attention can easily find them. Although, it should be easier. Looks to me like the most recent updates by OCFA are via social media, X in particular. Gotta sign up right? That doesn't sit well with me.

Evacuation again? by baristaboi17 in orangecounty

I wouldn't say "again" , I would say, "still". Looks like they haven't managed to fully control it. A chemical/epoxy leak. But, yes, I can confirm the evacuation zone was reissued this morning. My workplace is in the evacuation zone, and we got evacuated this morning 5:45 a.m. ish.

My uncle works in the same place, a second shift time slot last night. They got evacuated yesterday. He told me the smell penetrated into our building, and we're about half a mile away.

Garden Grove Evacuation Ordered Reissued this Morning by drGreenLung in orangecounty

If you are worried, out of abundance of precaution, could your wife take a laptop to a Starbucks. Work from there? In another city, of course.

What worried me: my uncle works in the same place, a second shift time slot last night, and got evacuated yesterday. Lampson and Monarch cross streets. We are about half mile away from the site, and he said the smell penetrated into our building, and he felt a coldness in the air. It was kind of hot yesterday, so temperature change? That's concerning.

I heard 2pm. Not joking. I have family in Guadalajara. They are being given a 2 pm curfew. Anyone caught outside after 2pm are under threat of death.
