Don’t Let Slow Start To Fire Season Fool You

It’s turning out to be one of the quietest starts to the forest fire season on record.
The Ministry of Natural Resources remains in a holding pattern.
However, Fire Response Specialist Rick Payne says the slow start doesn’t necessarily mean it’s going to be a quiet season.
Payne notes previous years with heavy snow and a late spring have ended up being their busiest seasons.
Payne stresses people can’t become complacent and notes we could be in a serious fire situation in no time at all.
