Re: Fire at the Gateway Arch

Can see it from my office. Black smoke rising 300-400 feet.

Wow, stay safe, DeSitter!

They said that its a building that houses the A/C controls and such for the Arch, so the A/C is out in the Arch, making it pretty hot. The fire broke out in the Transformer Vault, and they aren't putting any water on it, based on it being an electrical fire.

Wonder if they are gonna let it burn itself out... yikes. Smoke is everywhere, even seems to be drifting across the highway!

The FBI was on the scene immediately in case of terrorism, but it appears that it was nothing of the sort at this time.
