6AM Update -- NOW is the time to prepare to evacuate.

https://www.alberniweather.ca/underwoodfire/

There are no information updates from the ACRD or BCWildfire yet this morning. We hopefully have until tomorrow before the wind and weather shifts and strong Inlet/Southerly winds could return.

The weather overnight was not great. DId not go below 20ΒΊC. It will be very hot today.

Stay safe and prepare today. Links to Grab and Go stuff are on the page.

1AM: I'm headed to bed. Wil be up before 8AM and will try to update asap. ACRD Voyent Alert app is the best source as will be The Peak in the morning when they come on the air.

Stay safe out there and be prepared for anything.

Update at 12AM. I have updated the link to the post on Alberniweather to be:

Not too much to report. The ACRD appears to be sending updates only through the VoyentApp currently. I have duplicated their messages on the post and added other information.

630ha at 10:30PM. It is close to the ridge but hasnt topped it yet.

Working on our grab and go.

Documents are gathered. A few clothes. Food for the cats. And four 4L jugs of water. One for each of the family and one for the two cats. (washed then out with Dawn first to get out any milk remnants)

If we have to, we could go right now, with this stuff but we'll gather more tomorrow.

4/n Not going to sugar coat this.

Tonight, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday could be very scary.

If the rain comes on Friday that will help immensely.

I believe every person in the City of Port Alberni should Get a grab and go bag ready right now.

Make areangements with friends and family out of town if you can just in case.

This is serious. It could go bad very quickly. The best we can do is be over prepared.

The south facing Alberniweather WebCam has the best view. 😒😒
Apparently, it is very near China Creek. Please do not approach that area.
Or anywhere on the southside of town to ensure emergency vehicles can get down there
