Laval

Snow cover has also melted in Laval, bringing spring conditions favourable to vegetation fires. SOPFEU has started issuing the fire danger index for this area.

Like Montréal, Laval is largely urban, so SOPFEU’s presence is limited. Fires that do occur are generally found in open fields or small wooded lots and are normally managed by the Laval Fire Department.

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.

    Le couvert de neige est toujours présent dans les secteurs boisés de la région de Laval. Le risque de feux de forêt y est donc inexistant. La diffusion de l’indice du danger d’incendie pour cette région n’est donc pas encore commencée.

    Notons que la région lavalloise étant essentiellement urbaine, les interventions de la SOPFEU sur ce territoire sont très rares. Les feux de végétation qui peuvent s’y produire surviennent généralement dans des champs ou de petits boisés. Ces incendies sont habituellement pris en charge par le Service de sécurité incendie de Laval.
