Last night a 'calm but very busy night,' says West Kelowna fire chief
It is expected the number of partial and full structural losses to the McDougall Creek wildfire within West Kelowna and on Westbank First Nation lands will be less than 90, in addition to fewer than 100 in the regional district.
North Westside fire chief Ross Kotscherofski, who is responsible for the area outside city and WFN limits, provided a rough estimate of the number of homes impacted in that area at fewer than 100 structures. The Traders Cove neighbourhood and Lake Okanagan Resort were the hardest hit areas, he said. “We are meeting multiple times a day to talk about where, when and how we can rescind these evacuation orders.”
