2 homes evacuated as wildfire burns in Metro Vancouver park

Two homes have been evacuated as crews battle a wildfire that broke out Wednesday in Metro Vancouver təmtəmíxʷtən Belcarra Regional Park.

Some parts of Metro Vancouver have air quality ranked at a Level Nine, with the Eastern Fraser Valley ranked at a Level 10 plus, which means very high risk.

Plans for the staged re-opening of a wildfire cordon around a village in the Cairngorms are being finalised by police and fire chiefs despite the winds changing and new smoke warnings.
