华盛顿州斯波坎 —— 美国西部有40多起大型野火正在燃烧,严重干旱加剧了火势,与此同时加拿大西部多地也有超过100处野火肆虐。
内华达州里诺附近的巴格山野火过火面积已超过1.5万英亩,火势危险地逼近居民区,迫使数千名居民在上周末疏散。
在犹他州,两名飞行员周五在参与“宽口2号”野火的灭火行动时直升机坠毁身亡,该野火过火面积已扩大至10万英亩以上。
在与华盛顿州接壤的加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省,“秃岭野火”失去控制,夜间火势几乎翻倍,居民纷纷紧急撤离。温哥华以东150英里的萨默兰地区已有超过2万人被下令疏散,官员表示部分居民不得不被救援。
“空中救援团队已转为应急疏散人员,”不列颠哥伦比亚省林业部长拉维·帕尔马说道。“我们出动了18架飞机,营救了50多名民众。”
由于大风天气和长期干旱,该省境内有超过100起野火在燃烧,不列颠哥伦比亚省已于周六宣布全省进入紧急状态。

上周,华盛顿州斯波坎附近的野火暴露了火情形势的恶化速度有多快。当地的野火摧毁了近1000处建筑。
斯波坎的部分疏散令已于周日解除,但受打击最严重的社区仍处于封闭状态,消防人员正在排查余火隐患。
斯波坎县警长约翰·诺威尔斯表示,当局正尽一切努力“以最快且安全的方式”让民众返回家园。
官员尚未透露受灾最严重地区的居民何时能够回家。救援人员仍在排查余火并清理危险物资。

Spokane, Washington — More than 40 large wildfires are burning in the West, fueled by severe drought, as over 100 blazes scorch parts of western Canada.
The Bug Fire near Reno, Nevada, has burned more than 15,000 acres, getting dangerously close to homes and forcing thousands of residents to evacuate over the weekend.
In Utah, two pilots were killed after their helicopter crashed on Friday while fighting the Widemouth 2 Fire, which has grown to more than 100,000 acres.
And in British Columbia, Canada, which borders Washington, the Bald Range Fire burned out of control, nearly doubling overnight as residents raced out. More than 20,000 people were ordered to evacuate the area of Summerland — 150 miles east of Vancouver — and officials say some residents had to be rescued.
“Aerial response teams were converted to emergency evacuation personnel,” said Ravi Parmar, minister of forests of British Columbia. “Eighteen of our aircraft were used to rescue more than 50 individuals.”
British Columbia declared a province-wide state of emergency Saturday as more than 100 wildfires burned across the province amid windy weather and prolonged drought.

Last week, fires near Spokane, Washington, showed how quickly conditions can escalate. Blazes there destroyed nearly 1,000 structures.
Some evacuations in Spokane eased Sunday, but the hardest-hit neighborhoods remain closed while crews check for hot spots.
Spokane County Sheriff John Nowels said authorities were doing everything they could to get people back in their homes “as soon and as safe as possible.”
Officials have not said exactly when families in the hardest-hit areas can go home. Crews are still monitoring for hot spots and removing hazardous materials.
