Rain is in the forecast for Friday which may be good news as crews try to contain the huge and still growing Mount Underwood wildfire south of Port Alberni. The fire had reached 22 square kilometres by Wednesday morning. Parts of Port Alberni remain on evacuation alert. Meanwhile, the small town of Bamfield has been hit by a power outage as a result of the fire. The main road between Bamfield and Port Alberni is still closed.
