Progress on wildfire activity in the region.
Ontario's Ministry of Natural Resources is now showing just two active fires in the Wawa District: "Wawa 15", "being held" at 7 hectares in size, on the eastern shore of Lake Superior in Lake Superior Provincial Park, about a kilometre south of Laughing Brook Creek; and "Wawa 28", also "being held" at 0.1 hectares, about 17 kilometres northeast of Missanabie, west of Missinaibi Provincial Park.
"Wawa 17" - which was first reported July 15th, about 15 kilometres northeast of Pic Mobert and east of White Lake - has now been called "out" after reaching 37.5 hectares in size.
The fire hazard's mostly low or moderate across the North, with some pockets of high hazard, particularly locally.
