In the southeastern part of Bas-Saint-Laurent, snow cover has disappeared, and spring conditions are now favourable to vegetation fires. SOPFEU is now issuing the fire danger index in this region.

In spring, as soon as the nice weather returns, it’s important to stay alert. Dead vegetation—such as dry grass, brush, and dead leaves—can dry out very quickly with just a bit of sun and wind, becoming highly flammable.
