This morning over in the #SGV we were getting smoke smells from the #BoyleHeights fire.
It's drifted somewhat way from us and more toward Glendale right now.
According to the #LATimes, the city of Los Angeles is probably going to declare a state of emergency today.
The LAFD chief is quoted as saying this is a "very unique fire, a very unique challenge for the Los Angeles Fire Department , for the city of Los Angeles, but also for the County of Los Angeles"
It's a 500,000 square foot cold storage building at 1400 S Los Palos St, and housed 85 million pounds of frozen food.
The fire is hard to control because the dense foam insulation is slowly burning inside the freezer cases.
The fire department thinks they've mitigated the toxic fumes from the fire and is currently more concerned about the biohazard caused by millions of tons of rotting food.

(I'm concerned about the grocery store consequences of of millions of pounds of frozen food being destroyed.)
