A wildfire near Fort Nelson, B.C., has destroyed four homes and damaged six other properties, according to Mayor Rob Fraser. Emergency operations assessed the damage and contacted affected owners amid favorable weather. Fraser reported on Facebook that three of the destroyed homes were occupied. The other six properties lost shops, sheds, boats, and vehicles, but not homes. Fraser expressed deep sympathy for the affected families and pledged support.
An evacuation order for about 4,700 people remains, with essential service access allowed. The RCMP patrols to ensure security. The Parker Lake wildfire, covering 123 square kilometers, remains out of control, but favorable weather offers hope.
