Maeberry Mercantile ~ Sunday feature

The “Holy Habanero” is a fresh habanero pepper sauce that is flavourful, piquant, and cheeky!

Also, the “Sneeky Heet” sauce. A Blend of Jalapeño, Habanero, and Pimero peppers with a hint of cumin creating a subtle smoky flavour sure to warm your core.

And big Zucchinis too!

Moved up to Moderate

The bountiful rainfall last week gave us a great break on the Fire Danger Class scale and the Danger Class needle was at LOW for the past eleven days. That was very unusual for August these past few years! 

However, we have climbed up to MODERATE Fire Danger this long weekend and we urge you to continue to be safe and vigilant with your evening campfires. After you have been given your evening Campfire Permit by applying on-line towww.thetisislandfire.ca, make sure you have at least 3 feet (1 metre) of cleared area (down to mineral soil) around your campfire ring and no fire larger than 18” wide and the flame height lower than 18”. 

Any campfire over 18” ( 1/2 metre) is considered a Category 2 or 3 fire and is prohibited at this time. Regulations call for at least 8 litres of water and a hand tool at the campfire while it is lit, and a responsible adult must be present.

Weekend Fire Weather Forecast

Thurs-Fri: A building ridge moves into the southern portion of the province. Sunny and warm conditions return. As the ridge strengthens it blocks any potential moisture or cooler air. Overall, light to moderate SW inflow winds on the mainland. 

Sat-Mon: Ridge remains for Saturday and Sunday, with above seasonal temperatures. RH values will drop, with the Pemberton and Fraser zones seeing the biggest impact. Late Sunday and into Monday the ridge starts to slide east, temperatures will dip, and RH values will recover. Monday brings potential development of thunderstorms. A risk of lightning is predicted along the eastern border of the Fraser Zone.
