A flood watch covered the Skeena region of northwestern B.C. Tuesday as unseasonably warm temperatures swell rivers in many areas of the province.
The BC Wildfire Service continues to respond to the Cameron River wildfire located approximately 74 kilometres northwest of Fort St. John, B.C., as shown in this recent handout image.
The hot weather is accelerating snowmelt across most of B.C., the centre said, estimating that the Bulkley River near Smithers could reach 10-year flow levels by Wednesday or Thursday.A heat warning from Environment Canada remained in effect in the same area, covering inland areas of the north coast.
A section of the Bella Coola River on the central coast was also under a flood watch, while high streamflow advisories covered much of the rest of the province. B.C. claimed the 10 hottest spots in Canada on Monday, with the Fraser Canyon community of Lytton topping the list at 36.5 C.
