B.C. remains under a state of emergency as about 154 wildfires continue to burn across the province.
About 44,000 British Columbians registered as evacuees during one of the worst wildfire seasons in B.C.’s history. Premier John Horgan has now extended the state of emergency by two weeks to the end of day on Aug. 4.
The map is accurate as of 12:30 p.m. Thursday, July 27, although the wildfire situation may change at any time. The larger flames on the map are considered “wildfires of note.”
This video is current as of THE LAST 24 HOURS from a National news outlet: ( 3.5 mins. )
The B.C. Wildfire Service says it is preparing for a very busy few days ahead and it is expecting a number of new fires to start.

I saw today on the news when I was out -- that there are at LEAST 15 new fires, that they are even aware of!!!
.... There are still 300 firefighters on the front lines in just ONE region, building fuel breaks and trying to protect homes. The fires are crossing some of those barriers.
A rapidly moving fire near Monte Lake, east of Kamloops, forced two evacuation orders Wednesday night covering 60 properties, and prompted the Thompson-Nicola Regional District to declare a local state of emergency. A further 58 properties are under an evacuation alert.
The wildfire, burning along Highway 97, has now grown to more than 150 hectares. It was spotted Wednesday afternoon and is still threatening homes but has calmed down since Wednesday.
2 mins of video here from residents / media coverage CURRENT AS OF TODAY:
On Thursday morning, fire officials said crews had some success overnight and the winds died down, which was good news.
The weather will not be helping matters.
Global BC meteorologist Yvonne Schalle says today there is still the chance of an isolated thunderstorm in the central interior.
“The Columbia and Kootenay region though, late in the day, especially for the southern interior, the winds [will gust] anywhere between 20 and 40 km/h,” she said.
“We are not seeing any reprieve for our temperatures as it is warming up for the southern interior. Temperatures into the 30s can be expected.”
The video below is a complete 30 min. official video update on several issues and areas of the Province, by a Canadian national news service. It is worse than when this video was shot about ~10 days ago:
Mainstream media is good for something once in awhile.
Let us keep these people in BC in our prayers.
British Columbia may ask for more help if its wildfires worsen, the western Canadian province said on Friday after the federal government sent 225 additional soldiers to battle blazes that have been spreading rapidly in hot, dry weather.
