EVERETT — A cloud of dark smoke over the Boeing factory at Everett Tuesday looked worse than it was.

Everett Fire Marshal Rick Robinson says there is no fire. It’s only a boiler firing up for the first time of the season.

Boeing spokesman Doug Alder says the boiler is new, but there is no issue and work continues as normal.
