The Long Lake wildfires complex is still out of control and estimated at 8468 hectares. No new reports of damage. Morale is high as crews make good progress around the perimeter. Aircraft drop water making it safe for ground crews to tie in hose lines, advance inward on the fire.

With $80K from @NSChallengeFund, @SeaFarmers is exploring how to turn fish farm waste into new products, local partnerships, and lower greenhouse gas emissions. It’s a big step toward a circular economy and a cleaner, greener future for our province.

There are four stages of a wildfire: out of control, being held, under control, and extinguished. Evacuation decisions are not necessarily tied to the wildfire status. While good progress is being made on the Long Lake wildfire, its status is still out of control.

The Long Lake wildfire remains out of control and the wind direction has shifted, so people in other parts of Nova Scotia will smell the smoke. Please keep that in mind if you suspect a fire in your community. (1/2)

Fire breaks along some sections of the perimeter are nearing completion. Work is focused on the northern end of the fire to prevent spread toward communities and allow firefighters to advance from the outside in to fight the fire. Aim is to get evacuees home as soon as possible.

The Long Lakes wildfires complex is still out of control. New estimated size is 8465 hectares based on more precise measurement. No new reports of damage. Favourable weather is helping crews make good progress, but they have not yet completed a line around the entire fire zone.

Do not operate drones in a wildfire area. It is illegal. It can interfere with our firefighting efforts. Aircraft are using a very large airspace around the Long Lake wildfires complex. It is not safe to use a drone anywhere in the broader area.
