Residents near Atlanta were asked again to shelter in place if a chemical cloud moved over their neighborhood as plumes from a chemical plant fire continued to shift overnight.

A weekend fire that sent a massive plume of dark smoke into the Georgia sky has led to complaints about a strong chemical smell and haze several miles away across metro Atlanta, where some schools canceled outdoor activities and residents living near the fire sheltered at home.

Residents east of Atlanta received new warnings to seek shelter as winds could blow a lingering chemical cloud over their areas.
