The fires are currently towering above the tank farm. There are at least two major flames visible from several miles away. One of the fires is sending up a column of thick black smoke. The other flares up above the tank farm and then subsides before flaring up again. The refinery spokesman’s telephone number says to leave a message. Nothing seen so far at the Seattle Post Intelligencer, FoxNews, etc.
Just cycled through all of the local channels up here. There isn’t a peep on ANY channel. If there was a big fire at the refinery, SOMEONE would say something, don’t you think?
Still not seeing anything on local (Seattle) news or on Twitter. Keep us updated, please.
