A fire ban is in effect for parts of the Avalon Peninsula — and will be in place at least for the next five days. The St. John's Regional Fire Department and the Portugal Cove-St. Philip's Volunteer Fire Department both announced separate fire bans on Friday morning, spanning across St. John's, Mount Pearl. Paradise and Portugal Cove-St. Philip's, citing the high fire hazard rating for the area. The bans include outdoor wood-burning appliances, charcoal barbecues and open fires, but excludes propane fire pits and barbecues. Both bans are in place until at least June 3. "In the meantime, SJRFD are asking people to be fire safe when using propane fire pits and barbecues, to keep a hose or fire extinguisher handy and follow manufacturer's requirements regarding clearances from combustible materials," said the statement. It comes as a wildfire threatens Churchill Falls in Labrador. Due to dry conditions, Happy Valley-Goose Bay has already implemented a fire ban.
