This is what the current situation is here with the fires. Air quality is off the charts, multiple communities in the interior are on evacuation orders and alerts.
#Squilax has been partially burned down (there's been mixed reports and gossip, but as of this morning the band office, and #Quaaout lodge still standing, but the gas station and some homes burnt down). There's been an extreme lag with news and updates about the #Shuswap area, as the focus has been on #Kelowna, and evacuation orders for reserves weren't posted on the #BCWildfire map until up to half a day later.
Many other #Secwepemc reserves are on evacuation orders, and while #ChaseBC is on alert, it's surrounded by orders and road closures. People are stealing and moving firefighting equipment, including the sprinklers protecting the few bridges in and out of communities.
I can't keep up with everything right now.
