Fire ban lands Thursday across south coast of B.C.

A fire ban comes in place for much of the south coast starting Thursday (July 16) at noon.
Category 1, 2 and 3 open fires will be prohibited through much of the Coastal Fire Centre jurisdiction, with exceptions for campfires in parts of the North Island and Sunshine Coast.
“Conditions are continually monitored, and restrictions are implemented where they are needed most to reduce the risk of human-caused wildfires and help protect communities, responders and our forests,” BC Wildfire
