KAMLOOPS — It was a case of no news is good news from the Thompson Nicola Regional District Monday afternoon (July 24) as the district provided a brief update into the Ross Moore Lake wildfire burning south of Kamloops.
“We are not looking at a necessarily a sudden shift in weather that would really change conditions at the fire scene,” said Colton Davies, TNRD EOC Communications Officer. “But, a bit more favourable. No status change, fortunately at this moment. We are not looking at any changes or increases to the order or alert areas we put in place on Sunday night.”
The fire, which was first spotted on Friday (July 21), has grown significantly.
