Shooting out of the roof, it was big and it was hot. Really up in my face. Felt the heat. Flames shut up about 100 feet into the sky. Right now we are dealing with surround and ground, we are getting this from all sides, it is too dangerous for our members to be in there. Two fire votes is water to prevent the flames from jumping to the ss Jeremiah Obrien Floating Museum which is docked next to the warehouse. It is my professional opinion that without the fire we would have lost the Jeremiah Obrien. 4 re
