The fire that ravaged roughly a third of the buildings in the Alberta town of Jasper last year exploded so quickly that crews had no chance to contain the initial blaze, according to a federal government report.Three lightning strikes within three minutes ignited fires that quickly merged about 23 kilometres south of Jasper on the evening of July 22, 2024, the report from Natural Resources Canada said.
