very close to #portalberni
must have only started in the past hour or two.
Looks like it is south of the city, near China Creek.
the wind is thankfully and rarely blowing NNE. So might be moving away from town. No info yet.

There is a fire at Cameron Lake. Looks like from someoneβs campfire last night.π‘ π€ There have been no thunderstorms recently.
It is on the opposite side of the highway. Traffic is not affected on Highway 4.
There is a campfire fire ban!!!
It has gone from the water right up the hill. These are pictures from last night around midnight when it began. No reports from BC Wildfire yet.
The smoke is visible from Alberniweather HQ in #PortAlberni
