Fire services have urged people to keep windows and doors shut after a huge blaze on an industrial estate which has seen nearby residents lose water supply.
West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service confirmed that two businesses, a car workshop and a concrete factory, at the estate in Ossett have been affected by the fire, with 100 per cent of the warehouse building destroyed.
Dramatic video footage and photos from the scene show bright orange flames and huge clouds of thick smoke filling the air.
The crew warned: "Please avoid the area if possible. Possible power interruptions in the local area. Please keep doors and windows closed."
Meanwhile Yorkshire Water has apologised to residents over no water or low pressure in the Ossett area, Yorkshire Live reports.

A spokesperson said: "Apologies to customers experiencing no water or low pressure.
"The fire service are in the area tackling a large fire."
A total of 80 firefighters in 14 fire engines were dispatched just before 8.20pm.
There are several houses very close to the scene, off Dale Street in Ossett.
Wakefield Council also tweeted warning residents to keep doors and windows closed.
Jacklyn Ellis, who lives in one of the many houses close to the fire, said: "I was just putting the baby to bed when this is what we see.
"People are blocking the drive to watch what's going off and more are people walking around than on a busy day.
"I'm scared for anyone close by and hope everyone stays safe and smart.
"People are still driving down the road, over the fire hoses to just be turned around. People should avoid dale street if they can."
