Williams Lake Mayor Walt Cobb's message to his community yesterday was:
Well we all we survived another weekend. For those of you not home yet we had a mixed bag for smoke. This morning Smokey but cleared up until now and starting to move in slowly.
Just got off the phone with an update for today. I posted the video as well. No growth on the ones right around the city. The Comer Trailer court area has been allowed back home so that gives me a little more comfort on that fire front.
Very hot today 35 and has not cooled off much yet.
For those of you who are home, I hope you had a good weekend and ready to get back to work.
Can't wait to get back to normal.
Finally - friendly reminder to continue to rely ONLY on official sources for Evacuation Alerts or Orders from your local government website or Facebook page or through the local media - Tribune (click here) or Vista Radio (click here).
