Extremely dry conditions concern Lethbridge Fire Department
LETHBRIDGE – While some areas of the country have been getting more than their fair share of precipitation, the exact opposite is true in southern Alberta.
And that’s a concern to the Lethbridge Fire department.
Fire Prevention Officer Jeff Marriott says they’re keeping a very close eye on conditions in the River Valley and surrounding the city.
“We are extremely concerned. Especially because it’s windy, too. The wind, even if we do get a bit of moisture in Lethbridge, we do get a lot of wind and that dries conditions out really fast and quite extensively.”
