While BC Wildfire does not know the suspected cause at this time, both of the fires were put on the wildfire map on Tuesday evening as a thunderstorm rolled through the valley. Much of the South Okanagan saw rain, strong winds, thunder and lightning.

Three wildfires east of Osoyoos that were noted on the map on Monday after a lightning storm are now out or classified as under control (Long Joe Creek and the north side of Anarchist Mountain).
