The provincial government is warning residents it will likely be an early start to the 2024 wildfire season given the current conditions across B.C.
The province said there will likely be more fires in an update on Monday, and residents should be ready to respond to conditions.
"The climate crisis is here and we are feeling the impact of climate change," Minister of Emergency Management and Climate Readiness, Bowinn Ma said.
The underlying deep drought conditions will remain in place as the 2024 fire season approaches.
Ma said it is "no secret" that many parts of the province did not accumulate the snowpack they were hoping for.
