It’s the downside of the current warm, dry weather - at least ten new wildfires are burning in B.C. One of those is a small but growing fire discovered between Stave Lake and Chehalis, north east of Mission. It started Sunday morning and is believed to be human caused. Two other fires are growing on Vancouver Island - one near Ladysmith and the other not far from Parksville. Meanwhile, a wildfire continues to burn in the Fraser Canyon near Hell’s Gate. Temperatures near 30C are keeping crews on standby through Monday.
