Garden Grove hazmat tank stays at 92 degrees as crews tweak cooling

TL;DR Summary
Fire officials say a methyl methacrylate-filled pressurized tank at GKN Aerospace in Garden Grove remained at 92°F overnight. Crews temporarily removed a ground hose used to cool the tank to gauge how it would respond without that measure, while water from a facility system continues cooling the vessel. Officials aim to lower the temperature as evacuation zones are scaled back and services resume in the affected area.
