Rain and cooler temperatures in the last 48 hours, a welcome sight for farmers and ranchers in the area, but also able to help with the fire danger, which is now rated as LOW.
It’s also meant the easing of fire bans to fire restrictions or advisories.
The City of Lethbridge lifted its ban for the River Valley Thursday, while Lethbridge County is now under a Fire Restriction, as are the MDs of Willow Creek and Pincher Creek, and Village of Cowley.
Fire advisories are now in place for the MD and Town of Taber, County of Forty Mile, MD and Town of Cardston, Piikani and Kainai First Nations, and Municipality of Crowsnest Pass.
