That's extremely devastating.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Residents have been evacuated and an exclusion zone has been issued following a fire that has destroyed hundreds of storage facilities at Logan, south of Brisbane.

Emergency services — including 17 firefighting crews — have been battling the blaze at the building on Kingston Road since 10pm on Thursday.

Queensland police made the emergency declaration under the Public Safety Preservation Act (PSPA) just before midnight.

Tammy Robinson, who runs Formally Ever After, a charity that helps dress teens for celebratory occasions and balls, said from the pictures she has seen, "it will definitely be our unit" that's impacted.

Ms Robinson choked back tears as she explained that over half of her stock may have been destroyed in the fire.

Traffic diversions remain in place, with police urging nearby residents to keep doors and windows closed and respiratory medication on hand.
