The number of forest fires is slowly coming down in Northeastern Ontario.
As of Sunday night there were 55 forest fires spread across the northeast including several in the North Bay cluster.
Of those fires, 24 are still out of control.
The fire activity is a drop from late last week when there were more than 70 wildfires burning in the northeast.
A major regional fire remains North Bay 62, which is 2,500 hectares large and burning in the River Valley Cluster.
The Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry is maintaining its priority rating for the fires in the River Valley cluster as well as those in the Temagami and Lady Evelyn clusters.
There are about 400 Ontario firefighters trying to extinguish the fires.
They’ve been joined by hundreds of firefighters and equipment from Alberta, British Columbia, Nova Scotia, P.E.I., Newfoundland, the Northwest Territories and Minnesota.
The MNRF says it expects Minnesota, the Territories, Alberta, B.C. and Saskatchewan will be adding to their support with more firefighters and equipment over the next few days.
