A cloud of black smoke which covered south Huntsville for a time before lunch came from a large fire at a pallet company in the Lacey's Spring area of northeast Morgan County.
The fire at Gibson's Wood Products broke out after 11 a.m. at a plant off U.S. Highway 231 just south of the Whitesburg Bridge.
Units from several Morgan County departments and a truck from Huntsville Fire Department's Station Seven fought the blaze which reportedly consumed thousands of wooden and plastic pallets.
Units knocked down the fire by lunch but were staying on the scene to knock down hot spots.
No injuries were reported.
