Canadian authorities are issuing urgent warnings to all residents still in a British Columbia town to evacuate immediately, despite better weather conditions, following earlier evacuations prompted by a rapidly spreading wildfire. The fire, ignited on Friday, surged nearly twofold in size by the next day, engulfing approximately 17 square kilometres (4,200 acres). BC Wildfire Service maps depict the blaze raging just a few kilometres west of Fort Nelson's city boundaries. Nestled in the far northeastern reaches of British Columbia, approximately 1,600 kilometres (995 miles) from Vancouver, lies Fort Nelson. This remote town, along with the Fort Nelson Indian Reserve, is home to a combined population of about 3,000 residents <br/> <br/> <br/>#EvacuationNotice #FortMcMurray #WildfireEmergency #OilTownThreat #CanadianWildfires #EmergencyResponse #FortMacFire #BCWildfire #CanadaWildfire #CatastrophicBlaze #SafetyFirst #DisasterAlert #CommunityEvacuation #EmergencyPreparedness #StayInformed<br/>~HT.178~PR.152~ED.194~GR.124~
