It may be mid-April, but fire season, believe it or not, is underway in British Columbia. As of Thursday afternoon, the fire danger rating for B.C.’s most populated regions were rated as moderate, though a large swath of the province was rated as low.
Though nowhere near high or extreme, the BC Wildfire Service says there have been 46 fires since April 1, including 28 in the last seven days.
Further, there are 18 active fires, with 39 per cent attributed as being human-caused. The Coastal region has the largest number of active fires to date at nine, followed by five in the Kamloops region plus two apiece in the Southeast and Cariboo fire centres.
