We received an e-mail from someone in British Columbia about the fires in Kelowna:
You guys are running a first class site and really appreciate your attention to some of goings on up here. FYI, I have attached a web link to local web news site in Kelowna that has been reporting on the fires there currently.
Look in the Gallery (Westside fire) for some really wicked photos of some of the air operations (tanker and helicopter) as well as some of the fire within built up areas on Saturday and Sunday.
BC Forest Service and city fire crews, air tanker and helicopter pilots as well as all other support people deserve a big round of applause for their combined team effort.
Here is one of the photos from the gallery:
By the way, that http://www.castanet.net/ site has a great deal of information about the fires.
Thanks to the person who sent the e-mail. We always appreciate information from our readers.
