I arrived a ORD yesterday for a commercial flight and caught an ARFF exercise going on (at least, I assume it was - I know where the 'dummy airplane' pad is and normal operations were continuing!). Quite impressive, flames and a plume of black smoke visible from some distance away.
Anyway, once inside the terminal I pulled up the ORD NOTAMs and couldn't see anything obviously related. Seems like as a pilot I'd want to know that the big ball of flames out on the airport was nothing to worry about. Would it be added to the weather broadcast or something like that?
