Large fire burning north of SEA Airport

Right now to see t a large fire burning just north of the airport. You can see here in this photo from a viewer smoke towering over the runway king Five's Madison Wade just got to the scene. Madison, what do we know so far? Well, just see right now there is a large fire presence here with fire officials working this fire behind me in this parking lot area. You can see a ladder truck is up right now is the sea T fire which is on scene. We want to be very clear that this is not happening at the airport tonight happening just north of the attack, not anywhere close to the airport vicinity. We are on 146 right now. You can see that firefighters have that ladder truck. They're taking a view from above just to see what is burning below. Many fire trucks are here. We're seeing other firefighters as well responding to the area. We don't see any active flames burning, but of course, this is what it looked like earlier today and this evening causing a lot of alarm for people who were taking off from the attack. And you can probably hear the planes above us. We are right. The fight flight path for the attack and the air airplanes taking off from the airport tonight. So a lot of people saw the smoke and were very concerned over what was happening here. This fire is continuing to burn. We're seeing more smoke from the fire as well and firefighters have that ladder truck up right now. They're taking a look from above to see what exactly they're dealing with. We are also working to confirm exactly where this fire is burning. We see enterprise holdings behind us. We also know a Boeing distribution center is also behind us. This does not appear to be on Boeing's property. We're working to figure out exactly what is on fire tonight here and see that again. 1 146 street, we are north of the airport. This is not impacting flights or passengers tonight at all. That is what we know right now. We work to get more information and send it back to you. Ok, Madison. Keep us updated. Thank you.
