On February 25, 2025, at approximately 8 a.m., the Spokane Fire Department issued a series of evacuation orders due to hazardous air conditions resulting from a hazmat incident. The affected areas include neighborhoods from East Central Avenue north to East Francis Avenue and from North Myrtle Street east to North Florida Street. Although evacuation procedures have been initiated, the exact number of streets and houses to be evacuated is still being determined. The authorities are working swiftly to assess the full scope of the incident and provide additional updates.
As of now, the Department of Ecology and hazmat teams have taken over the situation, prioritizing safety and air quality. The teams have placed air monitors throughout the affected neighborhood to monitor the air quality closely. Given the nature of the incident, property losses could be substantial, with estimates reaching millions of dollars. The potential long-term impact on the local community and infrastructure remains to be fully assessed.
