Low fire hazard

The high humidity levels are helping to control the forest fire hazard.

Jeff Antoszek of the Ministry of Natural Resources says there is enough moisture in the air to keep forest from getting tinder dry.


There was just one forest fire reported in the region yesterday.

Its an 18 hectare blaze about 120 kilometers north of Pickle Lake.

The fire hazard across the region is low to moderate today.
