4 injured after explosion and fire reported at an ExxonMobil refinery in Baytown, Texas

4 injured after explosion and fire reported at an ExxonMobil refinery in Baytown, Texas

A “major industrial accident” injured at least four people early Thursday at one of the United States’ largest oil refineries, sheriff’s officials in the Houston area said.

Initial reports indicated an explosion happened at the ExxonMobil oil refinery in Baytown, Texas, Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said in a tweet, and residents in the area reported a loud explosion.
A fire happened at the refinery around 2 a.m. ET, according to ExxonMobil, did not immediately confirm an explosion or say what led to the fire.
Four people were injured, the sheriff’s office said, three of whom were taken for treatment by helicopter and one by ambulance.
The fire happened in a unit that produces gasoline, and the plant’s emergency workers still were working before sunrise to extinguish the fire, ExxonMobil refinery manager Rohan Davis told reporters early Thursday.
The conditions of the four injured people were stable, said Davis, who said he could not comment on the extent of their injuries.

The cause of the fire wasn’t immediately known and will be investigated, Davis said.
The company is coordinating with authorities and is monitoring air quality with regulators, Davis said.
“All of those results so far have shown no impact to the community from an air quality perspective,” Davis said.

Blast effects could impact spring gas prices

The Baytown refinery, which began operations in 1920, has an average daily capacity to refine 561,000 barrels of oil, according to the US Energy Information Administration.
That makes it the fourth-largest US refinery, only 8% smaller than the largest, the Motiva Enterprises facility in Port Arthur, Texas, owned by Saudi Aramco. Baytown is one of only five US refineries with a capacity of more than 500,000 barrels a day.
The refinery incident Thursday could hamper output for months, weighing on gasoline supply at a time when US refining capacity has already been reduced, said Tom Kloza, a chief oil analyst for the Oil Price Information Service.
The incident shouldn’t immediately send gas prices higher. That’s mostly because the next six weeks — from right before Christmas to early February — is historically the period of lowest demand for gasoline nationwide. Wholesale gas prices were up only 2 cents a gallon to $2.19 in early trading Thursday.
“Fortunately we don’t need the gasoline (from Baytown) for the next six weeks,” Kloza said. But by spring, when demand starts to increase again, the lost output from Baytown will likely be felt at pumps nationwide.
ExxonMobil operates the refinery and several other facilities, including a chemical plant and a technology center, on about 3,400 acres in and around Baytown. It employs about 7,000 people in the Baytown area, the company says.
The refinery in Baytown is roughly a 25-mile drive east of downtown Houston.

Texans Announce Unfortunate News On WR Brandin Cooks

The Houston Texans are the latest team to have Week 16 derailed by cases of COVID-19. On Wednesday, the organization revealed that one of its top offensive players tested positive for the virus.

According to an announcement from the Texans, wide receiver Brandin Cooks was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday afternoon. The designation will make it much more difficult for the veteran pass-catcher to get on the field for Houston’s game this week against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Under the league’s health and safety protocols, Cooks will have a chance to return this weekend, but he’ll need to make a quick turnaround to be ready to play by Sunday.

Cooks has been the sole bright spot for a Texans offense that’s struggled to have much if any, success this season. Playing in all 14 games so far this year, the 28-year-old veteran has caught 80 passes for 945 yards and five touchdowns.

He leads Houston in all three major receiving categories and by quite a large margin in receptions and yards.

Cooks wasn’t the only player in Houston to land on the list in the middle of Week 16. Kicker Ka’imi Fairbairn and linebacker Eric Wilson also received the designation.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports that Texans coach David Culley said last week that Wilson is the team’s only unvaccinated player. That means he’s guaranteed to be out on Sunday, while Cooks and Fairbairn still have a chance to play.

The Texans will hope to get an answer soon before they welcome in the Chargers to Houston on Sunday for a 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Celtics sign 40-year-old Joe Johnson to 10-day contract

Celtics sign 40-year-old Joe Johnson to 10-day contract

 Joe Johnson knew there was always a chance he could get back into the NBA, especially with the recent increase of COVID-19 cases.

It happened Wednesday when the Boston Celtics signed the 40-year-old Johnson to a 10-day contract before their 111-101 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The crowd chanted “We Want Joe! “We Want Joe!” and broke into a loud cheer when he got off the bench and came into the game. He got a huge ovation when he hit a fallaway jumper in the final minute.

“It is kind of surreal,” Johnson said. “To come into the game and be somewhat effective, that’s fun. At my age, you try to relish every moment, enjoy the process and live in the moment. That’s kind of what I’m doing right now, living in the moment and it’s fun.”

Johnson knows people will first talk about his age when they see he’s back in the league for the first time since 2018.

“I don’t look at my age and say, `I can’t play with these guys,'” Johnson said before the game. “I know it’s a young man’s game, but at the same time, as I said, I pay a lot of attention to my body.”

Johnson started his NBA career with Boston when he was drafted 10th overall in 2001. The seven-time All-Star played 1,276 regular-season games through the 2017-18 season, averaging 16.0 points with the Celtics, Phoenix, Atlanta, Brooklyn, Miami, Utah, and Houston.

To stay in shape, Johnson said he’s been working out in the gym with his 14-year-old son.

“I wouldn’t say ‘give up,’ but I didn’t have high hopes,” Johnson said his thoughts about getting another chance.

Now, he’s got an example for his son.

“I always talk to him about work, you can’t see what’s next,” he said.

Johnson was signed because Boston has seven players in the NBA’s COVID protocols.

“I think it is a different situation,” Boston coach Ime Udoka said about his added veteran presence “It’s a guy that all looked up to at some point. Jayson (Tatum) specifically started smiling and said: ‘That was one of my favorite players growing up.”’

Johnson found out from his agent when he was out celebrating his daughter’s eighth birthday.

“When my agent called me yesterday and said this was on the table, it was a no-brainer for me,” he said. “I’m a guy that takes care of my body and I’m in pretty good shape. I felt like I was ready to take on that challenge.”

Bucks snap 2-game skid with 126-106 victory over Rockets

Bucks snap 2-game skid with 126-106 victory over Rockets

After learning while in quarantine that his grandmother died, Wesley Matthews returned from health and safety protocols and delivered a performance to honor her.

Matthews scored a season-high 16 points and the Milwaukee Bucks beat the Houston Rockets 126-106 on Wednesday night to snap a two-game skid.

“It meant the world to me because my grandma meant the world to me,” Matthews said. “What brought her the most joy was watching me play. There was no doubt. I knew what I had to do.”

Jrue Holiday led the Bucks with 24 points. Khris Middleton added 23 after missing three games with a hyperextended left knee. But it was Matthews’ performance that had the Bucks searching for superlatives.

“He’s one of the ultimate warriors I’ve ever been around,” Bucks coach Mike Budenholzer said. “I have so much respect for him. So glad he’s here. That’s one of the more impressive things I’ve seen in a long time, for a lot of reasons.”

Matthews hadn’t scored more than three points in any of the other four games he had played since signing with the Bucks on Dec. 3, but the 35-year-old guard was in peak form Wednesday.

He shot 6 of 7 overall and 4 of 5 from 3-point range as he returned to action after a five-game absence.

“I didn’t know what to expect, what kind of emotion,” Matthews said. “The main thing is she just wanted me to hustle and work. That’s what I was going to do. Whether I made the shot or didn’t make the shot, I was going to leave everything out there because I know what brought her joy. I’m hoping we did that tonight with a win.”

The Bucks were missing two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo for a fourth straight game as he remains in the NBA’s health and safety protocols along with teammates Bobby Portis and Donte DiVincenzo.

Houston wasn’t missing anyone for reasons related to COVID-19, but Jalen Green hasn’t played since Nov. 24 due to a strained left hamstring and Kevin Porter Jr. has been out nearly three weeks with a bruised left thigh.

Christian Wood led the Rockets with 20 points and 11 rebounds. Houston also got 12 points each from Eric Gordon and KJ Martin plus 10 apiece from Garrison Mathews and Alperen Sengun.

Milwaukee’s DeMarcus Cousins had 18 points and eight rebounds. Jordan Nwora added 18 points and nine rebounds for the Bucks.

The Bucks scored 16 straight points in the second quarter to seize control. Holiday scored seven points during the stretch, and Cousins added five with a three-point play and a dunk.

Nwora provided the most memorable play of that spurt by sinking a 3-pointer after making a nifty step-back move that sent Houston’s Armoni Brooks sprawling to the floor.

Houston took more than half its shots from 3-point range but made just 28.9% of its attempts from beyond the arc.

“Their defense is proven,” Rockets coach Stephen Silas said. “That’s what they do. They take away the paint.”

TIP-INS

Rockets: Wood had another big game while continuing to deal with left knee tendinitis, which caused him to miss two games last week. Wood has scored at least 20 points in five of the last six games he has played.

Bucks: Grayson Allen didn’t play. Budenholzer said Allen was dealing with an illness unrelated to COVID-19. … The Bucks are playing on back-to-back days for the third time in the last two weeks. … Nwora has scored in double figures for a career-high four straight games. … The Bucks completed a regular-season sweep of the Rockets. The Bucks won 123-114 at Houston on Dec. 10 to snap the Rockets’ seven-game winning streak.

Houston-area COVID-19 testing sites attract long lines ahead of Christmas holiday

Houston-area COVID-19 testing sites attract long lines ahead of Christmas holiday

Tis’ the season for long COVID-19 testing lines and short patience. It’s an image you’ll likely see at testing sites across the Houston area for both drive-up and walk-up sites this week.

“The line is this way and people are coming from the other direction. They’re trying to cut it,” said Andrea Luna, who waited in line at the drive-thru site in west Houston for a test.

Across the nation, long lines for COVID-19 tests were reported in Miami, New York, and Cleveland, Ohio as health experts and President Joe Biden urge Americans to get tested ahead of Christmas travel and gatherings.

Alex Duncan of Houston just returned from Chicago on Sunday and said she was stunned by the wait time at a testing kiosk Monday.

“I was stunned because I was looking for a place to get tested, and this place came up and I made an appointment,” Duncan said. “Well, how do I have an appointment and there’s a line?”

Site operator for Curative’s Tanglewilde kiosk Dominique Coleman said the average wait time was an hour, even for those with an appointment.

“We did close to 500 tests yesterday,” she said. “Today, we’re on track for more than that.”

Coleman said she attributes the uptick in people seeking tests to the omicron variant and people wanting to gather with family for the Christmas holiday.
