Today our fire crews focused on actioning the fire and extinguishing hot spots along the fire guard. Helicopters were used to drop water on areas that are burning inside the fire guard, which assisted crews with areas on the ground that are unsafe for them to work. This remains an active wildfire and our fire team is still working tirelessly to fight this blaze.
Hot spots are smouldering areas with heat and smoke but no flame. If you have concerns about a hot spot in the area, please call Fire Services at 780-968-8338. If you or your property are threatened, immediately call 9-1-1.
The Wabamun Office is now closed as reception centre. Entwistle Community Recreation Centre will be open 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. tomorrow with support and information available.
