Nathan Hazlehurstcalling for winds this afternoon so can change things
obviously have to wait and see
Nathan Hazlehurstnorthwestern winds in forecast
project ECHO 7lake country here. SW side of town took heavy losses. no
visible flame at this time.
Raymond Roy Sr.is it heading for the cam ??
project ECHO 7fire started here 5am Friday. by 7am full infurnos.
Nathan Hazlehurstyes I have heard from Friends in Winfield area that
it's bad. Dump fire is of concern also toxic smoke adding to situation
will burn for long time because of all the garbage under ground
Legacy3DTo view the fire hotspots and to get a better sense of the
fire's location go to this site as well
Legacy3DAlso had a survey plane flying over kelowna and up to sorrento
for 3 hours doing laps from 4am till 7am
Nathan Hazlehurstthey said fire is about 11 thousand hectares in size
I believe that is underestimated
Can8ianFire crew
Can8ianIf the fire crews are driving around La Casa, the fire must be close
Stargaser452some fire crew are staying at cottages at la casa
Nathan Hazlehurstprobably survey area for battle plan and get set up
Stargaser452as sleeping site - yes close by - 8 kms south of resort
Can8ianAh I didn't realize some of the fire crews were staying there
Nathan Hazlehurstwith the wrong wind direction 8km isn't far for a
fire to close in on La casa.
David Appellthey are not its on a evac order its security no one else is there
Nathan Hazlehurstyes fire department will definitely be going door to
door making sure everyone has left
Pickle RickSomething about these cookie cutter La casa's annoy me…just burn it
Steve RClear the ground of any life then build Barbie houses and plant
with non native trees.
