Several fire crews were called to a small blaze in the ditch on Stevens Road near Ross Road in West Kelowna, Friday afternoon.

The fire was quickly extinguished by the first firefighters on scene who cancelled all other fire engines.

It’s unclear what started the blaze; however luckily the flames did not spread.

Environment Canada is forecasting a 40 per cent chance of showers or flurries Friday evening which will carry over to Saturday.
