I have been hearing about the bad wildfire season in British Columbia Canada for several days now so perhaps somewhat belatedly I want to make this post focusing on these wildfires.
According to the September 9th Dashboard from the British Columbia Wildfire Service (updated daily so you may see something different), there are 152 active wildfires with 48 out of control wildfires. Campfire restrictions are currently in place. There are evacuation orders in place for some wildfires. There are 125 aerial resources assigned to work British Columbia Wildfires. You will also see a listing of other resources
They also have a map view and a list view with a list of all the wildfires, these pages are updated daily so what I am sharing here may be different from what you will see if you visit these pages. If you are interested in a specific wildfire, go to the map view and zoom in to the area you are interested and click on the dot representing a specific wildfire and you may find more information about that fire. To give you an overview of the wildfire situation in British Columbia I am inserting a screen shot I took of the current map view.

The BC Wildfire Service also has a blog, account on Facebook that you should be able to access without an account, as well as an account on YouTube.
My thoughts are wish all who are affected by these wildfires, wildland firefighters, aerial support, and support teams working these fires,
