Kamloops, Kelowna among the top Canadian cities at risk of wildfires: study
A company that compares insurance policies from different providers has ranked two local cities as being among the most at risk of wildfires this summer.
MyChoice released its list of Top 20 Canadian Cities at Highest Risk During 2024 Wildfire Season, with Kamloops rated the most at risk community of them all.
“Kamloops, B.C., tops the list with a risk score of 9.4/10, indicating extreme wildfire risk due to its high Forecast Severity Rating and well-above-average Forecast Severity Anomaly,” the company said on its website.
Kelowna was tied for the third most at-risk city with a score of 8.6 out of 10. The other communities that earned the same rating were Regina and Medicine Hat.
