Summary

A wildfire erupted Thursday, May 28, 2026, near Thunder Lake, forcing an immediate evacuation of homes in the Summerlea subdivision and later expanding to the entire Thunder Lake area. Residents west of Barrhead were urgently told to flee east on Highway 18 to the Barrhead County office for registration. Firefighters raced to contain the blaze as officials warned against unnecessary travel near the zone—this was a fast-moving, life-threatening emergency with structures already ablaze.
