New Brunswick air support arrives to fight central Newfoundland fire
Latest updates: Kingston, Holyrood and Martin Lake fires still out of control. Kingston fire is 1,432 hectares. Aerial resources, 3 water bombers, 4 helicopters, bird dog, to be shared between Kingston and Holyrood fires. Holyrood fire is 22 hectares, Martin Lake fire is 220 hectares. 3 air tractors from New Brunswick arrived Wednesday, assigned to Martin Lake fire, along with water bomber. Hot dry conditions still problem, no rain in forecast but low winds are favourable. Evacuation orders still in place for Kingston, Perry's Cove, Western Bay and Small Point-Adam's Cove-Blackhead-Broad Cove, sections of Holyrood and Conception Bay South. Evacuation alerts remain in place for Salmon Cove and Ochre Pit Cove. Evacuation orders still in place for cabin area off of Route 360, Bay d'Espoir Highway, extended to Rushy Pond. The ongoing fight against three raging wildfires in Newfoundland and Labrador continues, but additional air support from New Brunswick has arrived. The three fires that have forced evacuations of hundreds of people and put some communities on alert — the Kingston fire in Conception Bay North, the Holyrood fire and central Newfoundland fire in the Martin Lake area — are still burning out of control, said provincial fire duty officer Jeff Motty. Motty said the province will spread its aerial resources over the Kingston and Holyrood fires as needed on Thursday, including three water bombers, four helicopters and a bird dog. "As we see fit between two of those fires, water bombers and helicopters are shared back and forth," he told CBC Radio's The St. John's Morning Show. He said the Kingston fire is 1,432 hectares, and while in recent days the fire mapping has reported the fire rapidly growing, Motty said that's because more accurate mapping wasn't always possible due to smoky conditions. "Even though it doubled in size — which looks really, really bad — that was not just one day's run, that was a series of days where we just couldn't get in there… to map it." The Holyrood fire is holding steady at 22 hectares. "Crews have been very busy out that way on the back of residential areas, making sure that our containment lines are holding next to homes and things of that nature," Motty said. In central Newfoundland, Motty said the Martin Lake fire, near the Bay d'Espoir Highway, is 220 hectares as of Wednesday evening. He said it is also still burning out of control. The province's fourth water bomber will be flying missions on the fire, he said, along with ground crews and a management team. Moreover, he said the air tractors sent by New Brunswick arrived on Wednesday and will be working on the fire too. Rain on wish list Meteorologist Allison Sheppard said the forecast for the next few days is "maybe not the greatest for… fire conditions. But there's no real strong winds so hopefully that works in their favour." However, she said don't expect rain any time soon. "There really is no significant rain right through the five, seven day extended [forecast]," Sheppard said, adding warm temperatures are expected into next week with no rain to help fight the fires. Motty said they've been facing hot and dry conditions and there is no precipitation in the forecast, which is a problem. "Right now if I could ask for one thing from Mother Nature, it'd be rain," he said. Light winds are better than gusting winds, he said, so that's in their favour.
