BREAKING! Massive Fire Erupts at #Chevron #Refinery Near #LosAngeles, Sending Flames into the Sky
by Andrew Powell
October 3, 2025"Firefighters continued dousing a blaze Friday morning at a Chevron #OilRefinery in #ElSegundoCA, after a massive fire broke out the night before, lighting up the sky with flames visible for miles.
"According to The Associated Press, officials urged residents to stay indoors, though by early Friday the city said the fire was contained and posed no threat to public safety. No evacuations were ordered.
" 'All roads have been reopened after last night’s Chevron fire,' the city of El Segundo posted Friday morning. 'The fire is still burning but is contained at this time.'
"The South Coast Air Quality Management District said overnight monitoring detected 'elevated levels of volatile organic compounds” [#VOCs] at the refinery’s fence line, though local air quality readings Friday morning showed no major concerns. Officials noted that drizzle, marine layers, and light winds were keeping the plume aloft but warned conditions could shift as winds pick up."
