At around 1am on Friday morning over 260 homes and 2000 residents being given evacuation orders.
That number is still rising.
The fire, which was covering an area of roughly 11km squared grew overnight to 68km squared.
Since then the fire has made its way over the Okanagan Lake and into Lake Country, BC.
High winds last night stoked and spread the fire and officials are saying preparing for another scary night tonight.
It is heartbreaking to see the effects of these ever increasing with the warming of the planet.
