Authorities have shrunk the evacuation zone around the fire at Smitty's Supply in Tangipahoa Parish (SEE MAP BELOW).
After the explosion Friday afternoon, officials ordered an evacuation within a one-mile radius around the manufacturing center at U.S. 51 and Highway 10.
Monday morning, the evacuation was reduced to a few roads in the immediate vicinity of the plant.
Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry told WWL's Newell Normand that they hope to reopen all schools in that area tomorrow.
