Friday morning rain allows crews to control East Shuswap Road fire
KAMLOOPS — The 545-hectare East Shuswap Road wildfire is no longer posing a threat in Kamloops.
It was just eight days ago that the blaze broke out, forcing the evacuation of six homes and putting all residences in Sun Rivers under alert.
Kevin Skrepnek, chief fire information officer with the BC Wildfire Service, says the fire is now “very much under control” and “nothing of concern” after this morning’s rain event.
