That's a bad spot with the winds kicking up.

It started down on Okanagan Center Road West, straight up the hill to Night Hawk, apperently it has jumped Tyndall Road.

Hopefully the residents are/will be able to get out of there safely

Can see the smoke from my house in Ellison.

Sounds like evacs going on around Jack Seaton Park. Never seen this much activity. Several bombers, 3 helis with buckets, 5 Skimmers, crazy!

Don't need another interface fire going into the night.

Do the float planes flying really low in LC have anything to do with this fire? There have been like 6 at a time following each other flying really low over my house and barely clearing the trees at times.... A little unnerving. Anyone seen these planes or know what they are doing?
