“I never felt like this before”: Texas residents say they are experiencing health issues following a chemical plant fire.
A shelter-in-place order for two neighboring Texas cities was lifted Thursday, one day after a massive chemical fire that filled the sky with smoke for days in southeastern parts of the state was finally snuffed out.
The city of Deer Park lifted the order at 11:40 a.m. after earlier concerns about"levels of benzene or other volatile organic compounds within city limits." At least six area school districts had canceled classes Thursday.
