A few more wildfires have been confirmed in northeastern Ontario - including one near Gogama.
Ontario's Ministry of Natural Resources says "Timmins 5" was confirmed Tuesday - near the west side of Highway 144, about 4 kilometres west of Gogama - the fire was only a tenth of a hectare in size, but was not yet under control.
It was one of four wildfires burning in the northeast as of Tuesday evening, along with "Wawa 4" - reported last Wednesday, about 1 kilometre west of White River and about 500 metres south of Highway 17 - which is considered "under control" at 1.8 hectares in size.
Meanwhile, "Chapleau 9" - confirmed Monday, about 35 kilometres southeast of Chapleau and six kilometres north of Highway 667 - is now classified as "out".
The fire hazard is low to high across the Northeast, with pockets of extreme hazard.
