Progress has been made on a forest fire in the region.
Ontario's Ministry of Natural Resources is showing the 6 hectare "Wawa 2" - located about half a kilometre west of Highway 17 and about 7 kilometres northeast of Pokei Lake, or about 10 north of Obatanga Provincial Park - is now considered "being held" after it was reported Monday.
It was one of only three wildfires still burning in the northeast as of Tuesday evening.
The fire hazard's dropped to low to moderate north of Sault Ste. Marie and Cochrane, but is moderate to extreme below that line.
