June 27, 2004: A forest fire reached 2 tiny communities on the Yukon-British Columbia border, causing 19 people to flee their homes. Sprinklers were put on all threatened structures. Wind blew ash ahead of the fire, creating new fires. A weather inversion caused smoke to hover close to the ground and resulted in poor visibility. More than 86,498 ha burned, up from 3,672 ha to date in 2003. – Excerpt from 'The Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar' by David Phillips. © Environment Canada
