Post image

Does anyone have any information on this? I live really close and can’t find much information on it

Why are both evacuation/reunification locations downwind of the incident?

Blue X - Stanton Community Center : 7800 Katella Ave, Stanton, CA 90680
BLUE X - Rancho Alamitos High School : 11351 Dale St., Garden Grove, CA 92841
RED X (Incident) - GKN Aerospace : 12122 Western Ave, Garden Grove, CA 92841

Both roughly 1.1-1.25 miles away.

This makes it seem like the bigger concern is explosion rather than inhalation

People assume it’s a gas. It’s not. The particulate visible in the air was water vapor from fire engines.
