Fires continue to crop up in the province.

Manitoba Conservation says lighting started a total of 13 new wildfires earlier this week. The areas experiencing the bulk of these new wildfires are Snow Lake, Cranberry Portage, and Sherridon.

Wildfire crews are also doing suppression work to protect timber from larger wildfires in the Davidson Lake and Moose lake areas.

The fires don’t seem to be stopping any time soon as lightning is expected to produce new wildfires until we see some heavy rainfall.
