The Yakima County #EAS is due to an incident involving a propane fire in East Valley /Moxee involving Olympic Fruit at Highway 24 and Beaudry Rd. according to Yakima PD
Shelter In Place & Indoors shut windows/doors, seal any venting/areas where air comes in from outside. Stop airflow from outside to inside.
Really hard to find reliable info on the situation there. People in the comment section of the OEM FB page are saying the hazardous material is ammonia. That makes a lot more sense for a seal windows order than just a propane fire.
Finally a local news outlet that knows what they're doing.
The call came in at 3:50p Capt. Ryan Evers of the East Valley Fire District said the blaze started when a forklift caught fire near a propane tank. “Another propane tank next to it caught fire & then the building caught fire”
915p update: The order is because of the potential for an ammonia leak at the burning warehouse, emergency management director Tony Miller said. It will be in place for most of the night.
