Another fire has been started on the west side. They are calling it the Bear Creek Park fire. It isn't too close to you Jynnelle, but it could get there.

My grandpa is on evacuation alert, and he is out there fighting the fires. My grandma is also on alert, and she has no car, no transportation at all, she has atleast (literally) 100 cats, she has two dogs, tons of chickens and geese. I have no idea what she's going to do. She lives in Beaverdell, which is 3 hours away from Kelowna. It is already that far. My dad is on evacuation alert. My mom's boyfriend's house is gone. One of my best friend's house is gone. My other friend's house might be gone. So many people.

The first fire on the west side is contained but not controlled. The stupid fire has jumped all of the fire guards. On the map they showed on the news, we are right on the dotted line of being on evacuation alert. I'm scared.

I'll keep giving updates!

best thing you can do is stay calm. Pack all your valuable items, and keep watching the news.

It must be so scary

Omgosh... that's so scary... I would be in one HUGE world of panic if I were there. Do what Cass said... get everything that means a lot to you, pictures, videos, everything. And be sure to have lots of dog, cat, rat, bird, whatever kind of food you need for your pets. I'm praying for you guys, and be safe.
