Two new evacuation alerts have been issued in the past hour.
The Cariboo Regional District issued an Evacuation Alert issued for Dragon Mountain in the Kersley/French Road area.
An alert was also issued for North Lakeside at 4pm.
The City of Williams Lake issued a media release at 3:35pm stating that fire conditions around Williams Lake continue to change and that variable weather conditions continue to make predicting fire behavior around the City difficult.
The Emergency Operations Centre for the City of Williams Lake is continually monitoring the situation and will be acting with extreme prudence in issuing evacuation alerts.
The evacuation alerts for North Broadway and South Lakeside that were issued remain in effect and residents are asked to confirm changing conditions on a regular basis by monitoring radio, credible social media sites, and the City Facebook page.
“At this time there is no imminent danger to any structures or property on the City of Williams Lake.”
