Today is Friday. It is June 21st. Good morning, Kathy.

Good morning in the news this morning. Authorities say a huge fire in Southwest Philadelphia

has been contained to a single refinery. It happened at about news this morning. Authorities say a huge fire in southwest Philadelphia has been contained to a single refinery.

It happened at about 3.20 this morning. At least three explosions. I heard four later in the morning at the refinery were felt in Philadelphia, South Jersey and Delaware County.

So this fire, they're saying there were explosions there. Crews are on the scene with more arriving.

Two and a half, three hours into the blaze.

It's still burning.

Nick Murphy heard and felt it.

Got a text from him just shortly after 4 a.m.

So, yeah, it was a lot of people were woken up early this morning.

So this picture that's up in the studio,

it's one that's all over social media. It looks like the opening of Blade Runner with this huge flame ball coming up. And it was caught from multiple angles. And Preston, there's just huge, you know, it looks like a movie special effect. Yeah, you're absolutely right. No evacuations or injuries have been announced. So hopefully it stays that way. Nick and I were talking about the evacuations. We were kind of surprised, but I guess it is in such an isolated area that they're still okay with not having to evacuate anybody. We were talking the earlier press and I were talking about the fact that whenever you go by that area, you always tend to think, hmm, yeah, I wonder what would happen. Yeah, exactly. Well, this is it. I mean, because there's just, you see all those tanks and pipes in there, and you wonder how if there was something like this, how the whole thing wouldn't go up, you know? Right, right. I know there's a whole series of sort of domino fail safes that kick in, but still, that's an incredible thing to consider. Well, and there's kind of like, so there's like a tower with a flame that is normally there. And they were showing that this morning. And then over to the right of that is where this refinery is. And they're saying that it is contained to just the one refinery. All right. No word on what exploded or what is currently burning. There are light winds right now. but by 10, 11 o'clock this morning, they're saying that the meteorologists are saying that we could see up to 20 mile per hour gusts of wind. So that could affect some of the smoke coming from the fire. That would be blown towards the Navy Yard and across the river to Brooklawn. So you may want to keep your windows closed. They're advising at your home or in your car. No delays or cancellations at the airport are being reported, but you may want to leave a little bit early, leave some extra time to get there because of the road closures in the area. Too bad it wasn't a blue emu factory because that doesn't stink. It doesn't stink at all. It's great if you're a senior check into it. One man is in custody accused of murdering his grandmother and her four-year-old grandson.

The Burlington County Prosecutor's Office confirms two victims were dead inside the home on East Brook Lane in Willingboro, New Jersey.

According to sources, a four-year-old boy and his grandmother were stabbed to death on Thursday.

And I'm sorry, I don't know if it was his grandmother.

They're just saying of a grandmother. The alleged suspect then streamed his getaway live on Facebook. As sirens could be heard

in the background with police in pursuit, he says, cops on me and obviously using a lot of obscenities.

The sound of screeching tires could also be heard as he was driving recklessly through the

streets of Camden.

Seat belt off.
