I saw that live shot. I suspect it’s merely a waste gas flare - normal in any refinery. The rain reflects/refracts the light given off and sometimes makes it look ominous.

Thank you. We've had to "gas up" and conserve gas here in Arkansas due to expected supply disruptions. Waiting for the storm to get here tonight and tomorrow.

I hope that is the case -- about the refinery.

The reporter claimed it was brighter than normal. But what do reporters know...

But there should not be any waste gases burning in a hurricane... The refinery should be totally shutdown...
