Newfoundland and Labrador’s provincial fire duty officer says the largest of the province’s out-of-control wildfires continued to gain ground Monday amid dry, windy conditions on the Avalon Peninsula.
Mark Lawlor said the fire in eastern Newfoundland started over a week ago near the coastal town of Kingston, N.L., and has since expanded to about 52 square kilometres along the northwestern shore of Conception Bay.
