The worker bees are helping in any way they can to stem the sting of this seeming recurring summer threat, the shocking uprooting, the sickening forced exodus. Rains locally this week are more than welcome but the weekend forecast contains sunny skies before showers are set to return Monday evening for a good span of next week. May we manifest the same for our wildfire-ravaged N.W.T. and B.C. neighbours, forced to pick through so many unfair unknowns, stricken by such unfair plights.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"visually-hidden\">Article content<\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif\">Today\u2019s forecast<\/span><\/h3>\n<p data-async=\"\">Today: <span>Mainly sunny, with local smoke in the morning.
