Lightning still expected; 7,500 strikes started 256 wildfires in the last week
As B.C. experiences cooler weather in some regions, the province's Emergency Management Minister Bowinn Ma says there is still a number of weeks left in the"core" wildfire season and people still need to remain vigilant.
Ralston said in the last week, there were nearly 7,500 lightning strikes recorded in the province, resulting in 256 wildfire starts. More than 80 per cent of those wildfires are now either deemed out or contained. He said the immediate forecast will continue to create"challenging" wildfire conditions, although cooler temperatures are expected in the south. That shift in weather, he said, can come with high winds and more lightning activity.
