Blaze rages in British Columbia as Canadian wildfires continue to burn
Footage posted on Twitter appeared to show wildfires raging near Houston, a town in Canada British Columbia province.
The fast-moving fires at Peacock Creek, south of the town, resulted in an evacuation alert being given by authorities.
The alert followed a recommendation from the British Columbia Wildfire Service and is on top of an evacuation order issued last night for residents.
This year has been a record-breaking one for Canada in terms of high temperatures and the resulting wildfires have been unprecedented in scale.
