Geo answer
Today’s Geo Quiz focused on a city in the part of British Columbia that’s been hard hit by forest fires this week. The answer is Kelowna on the west shore of Okanagan Lake, BC. It’s where thousands of area residents have been forced to evacuate, and hundreds of firefighters are battling the Terrace Mountain wild fire. Anchor Katy Clark finds out more from Alise Rievlinger, fire information officer in Kelowna, and Al Beck, an emergency service coordinator in the nearby town of Vernon.
