Shuswap Emergency Program Update – July 24, 2023 - 3 PM
Additional BC Wildfire Service resources are being directed to the Lower East Adams Lake wildfire to assist with protecting the properties currently under an Evacuation Alert.
These resources are outlined as follows:
The size of the fire continues to grow. The most current mapping continues to show the fire at 2,000 hectares. Primary fire growth is continuing upslope and to the north, away from the structures.
There is a cooling temperature trend moving into the area. BCWS is reporting the potential for less severe fire behaviour in the coming days, however, this is entirely dependent on weather conditions.
