Meteorologists don’t expect significant rainfall in Quebec fire hot spots
Wildfires in northern Quebec continue to rage despite recent rainfall, and the coming days will bring a risk of lighting, which could spark more fires if strikes hit dry ground, Environment and Climate Change Canada says.
Meanwhile, wildfire smoke has led the federal weather agency to issue special air quality statements for all of southern Ontario and much of western Quebec. The meteorologists say they expect air quality in the Montreal area to worsen as that smoke moves into the city by Wednesday evening. Dr. François Prévost of the Cree Board of Health and Social Services of James Bay said the evacuation process has gone relatively well, but added the situation poses particular health, logistical and cultural challenges for evacuees — including elders, medical patients, pregnant women and infants — who have been transferred across hotels and health-care facilities in Montreal, Trois-Rivières, Quebec City and Saguenay.
