Showers of Blessing Ease Forest Fires
posted (April 29, 2020)
Tonight, Belize remains COVID free and we'll have the full update in our second segment, but our headline tonight is about the forest fires raging in Western Belize, across the Cayo District.

The Goode news is that around 3:30 this afternoon and hour long downpour fell on the VACA Forest Reserve which has been the epicentre of the largest and most difficult to contain fires.

As you can see in this footage from the conservation community - rain fell near the Vaca dam, and was seen as a blessing in addition to other very heavy and manpower intensive efforts on the ground.
