MidniteRain<p>This is what the current situation is here with the fires. Air quality is off the charts, multiple communities in the interior are on evacuation orders and alerts. </p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Squilax" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Squilax</span></a> has been partially burned down (there's been mixed reports and gossip, but as of this morning the band office, and <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Quaaout" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Quaaout</span></a> lodge still standing, but the gas station and some homes burnt down). There's been an extreme lag with news and updates about the <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Shuswap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Shuswap</span></a> area, as the focus has been on <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Kelowna" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Kelowna</span></a>, and evacuation orders for reserves weren't posted on the <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/BCWildfire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BCWildfire</span></a> map until up to half a day later.</p><p>Many other <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Secwepemc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Secwepemc</span></a> reserves are on evacuation orders, and while <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/ChaseBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ChaseBC</span></a> is on alert, it's surrounded by orders and road closures. People are stealing and moving firefighting equipment, including the sprinklers protecting the few bridges in and out of communities.</p><p>I can't keep up with everything right now.</p>
