To illustrate its intensity, he said it burned through six kilometres over several hours when it broke out Monday night. Today it’s still on the move and the expectation is that it may get more intense as the day continues on. “At this point we have a number of ground crews and heavy equipment working on the fire,” Bojahara said.

jeudi, 10 septembre 2020 à 06:00 - Hundreds of electric vehicle charging stations are dotted along a scenic route in the Okanagan Valley, which is described as “Canada’s Tuscany.”
Route 97 is an incredibly unique highway. It is the longest continuous north-south route in North America. More than 2,000 km of road stretches from northern California all the way to the Yukon.
Surprisingly, this highway is also famous for something else. It is nicknamed ‘The Electric Highway’ because along the way there are about 2,000 charging stations, giving electric vehicle owners the range confidence to make a long distance road trip possible.
