Officials provided an update on wildfires in British Columbia's Thompson Nicola Regional District on Wednesday.

There are about 250 wildfires currently active and more than 1,500 have burned across this province this year.

Todd Nessman of the BC Wildfire Service says conditions are trending in the right direction with the number of fires that threaten public safety and property dropping down to two dozen from 30 early this month.

He also said cooler temperatures have helped curtail significant fire growth in recent days and crews are making “some excellent progress” on some of the larger blazes.
