Due to changing weather patterns and the status of current wildfires, the MNRF has decided to lift restricted fire zones across the region.
In an unexpected turn of events, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry has decided to lift its fire restrictions across Ontario on Tuesday.
Marchand suggests the public check their area’s hazard level by going to Ontario.ca/forestfire for up-to-date information. There are areas within Northern Ontario that are still fairly dry and fire dangers can change rapidly as thunderstorms may occur. “We have seen significant lightning over the past week. We do have some rain looking to come into the region throughout this week, and as conditions dry out, we could see holdover lightning fires emerging from the ground as conditions dry out. The best case scenario is we have some nice, even widely distributed rainfall that keeps those conditions in the ground, which are less receptive to lightning fires,” said Marchand.
