B.C. crews brace for extreme fire behaviour when winds from cold front hit northeast
The BC Wildfire Service says crews are preparing for 'extreme fire behaviour' in the province's northeastern region as a second dry cold front is forecast to move through. The service says wind gusts up to 80km/hr are expected in some areas, which could fan the flames and cause growth in the region that is the focus of the province's fire fight. It will be the second cold front that has passed through the Fort Nelson area, with the first that moved through on Sunday causing increased fire behaviour. The warning comes after the Pocket Knife Creek wildfire formed over the weekend, quickly growing into a wildfire of note, one of three in B.C.'s northeast that have prompted a series of evacuation orders. That blaze is the result of two fires merging, and the service is now reporting that it spans more than 610 square kilometres. The wildfire service is warning drivers that Highway 97 will remain closed north of Fort Nelson until this evening due to the Summit Lake Fire, another fire of note. It is currently about 106 square kilometres in size and the service says the incoming cold front will bring conditions that may cause it to spread further. The Kiskatinaw River is the third fire of note in the province, listed at about 130 square kilometres in size. There are currently more than 80 fires burning across the province, with more than half listed as burning out of control. The fires have prompted Environment Canada to issue a special air quality statement for the northeastern region, saying smoke is causing poor air quality and reduced visibility. That statement, which covers Fort Nelson and the Peace River area, says conditions are expected to persist for the next 24 to 48 hours.

Hot spell persists in southern B.C. after breaking century-old records
VANCOUVER - An early season hot spell that has brought temperatures approaching 40 Celsius to parts of southern British Columbia, breaking more than a dozen daily heat records, won't be lifting until at least tomorrow. Lytton saw temperatures peak at 39.3 C on Sunday, making it the hottest spot in the country and breaking a daily record set two years ago. Also among the 15 daily records set Sunday were temperatures of 31.7 C in Nanaimo and 32.3 C in Pitt Meadows, both breaking high marks set in 1903. Environment Canada says the 'early season heat event' will last into the week in Howe Sound, Whistler, Pemberton, and inland Vancouver Island, as well as Interior areas. However, the agency says temperatures are set to cool on Tuesday elsewhere in the Lower Mainland and the southern island. Daily high temperatures are expected to remain in the high 20s to low 30s in coastal areas, reaching into the mid-to-high 30s inland.

Air quality alerts ease across much of Quebec and Ontario after days of haze
GATINEAU — Environment Canada says air quality has improved across most of Quebec and Ontario as changes in wind and rain ease the situation east of the Prairies, where wildfires continue to rage. The federal department lifted alerts for most parts of both provinces Sunday after two days of poor air quality warnings and a haze that hung over cities including Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal. But special air quality warnings or statements remain in place for some areas, including communities east of Montreal, south of Quebec City and in parts of northern Ontario, especially those near the Manitoba border. Poor air quality continues to envelop the Prairie provinces this weekend, as swaths of six provinces and the Northwest Territories are experiencing poor air quality and reduced visibility due to forest fires. Environment Canada says a low pressure system passing through the Prairies and into Manitoba and northwestern Ontario by Monday is expected to bring rain to areas hit by the out-of-control blazes. Authorities recommend those in affected areas stay indoors when possible and avoid strenuous outdoor activity. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 8, 2025. The Canadian Press
