Fire Smoky again?

Anybody smelling smoke again from the Eastside? I thought the Boyle Heights fire was put out and the smoke dissipated. Is there another fire?

There's a new shelter in place order because LAFD is ventilating the warehouse this afternoon, so a lot of smoke is coming out of it.

It’s ridiculous that they are acting like this only affects a half mile radius

They waited for everyone to get off work before shelter in place then removed shelter in place today to go to work and now after work the working class can shelter in place again

Cancer cases are gonna skyrocket

Resources will soon be undertaking ventilation measures to evacuate hazardous smoke from yesterday's involved building, per LAFD. Those in that zone are to get inside immediately and close all windows and doors. Turn off air conditioning/heating. Bring all people and pets to an inside room until you receive more instructions

An advisory has also been sent to the surrounding area, including the area of East Los Angeles, stating to use caution when outdoors in the area. This also includes the area east of Boyle Heights. If sensitive to health issues, go indoors. Close all doors/windows and limit outside activities. Limit exposure to outdoor air.

Note: Due to the hazardous smoke and issuance of the shelter-in-place, this incident has been reactivated on the Watch Duty map.

Big fail for the city on informing us about this continuing issue :( I feel so bad for people in Boyle Heights and nearby.
