Jenna Smith got a first-hand experience of the Mount Eneas wildfire from the window of her car.
On Wednesday, Smith and her boyfriend were on their way to Penticton after visiting family in West Kelowna, only to be stuck in a four-hour lineup of traffic near Peachland.

She recorded a video and posted it on Facebook, calling it a scene out of an apocalypse movie.
Growing up in Penticton, the Victoria resident is all-too-familiar with wildfire. Her family in West Kelowna had to be evacuated with their horses a few times, she said.
Her boyfriend was also working in Fort McMurray during the devastating wildfire in 2016.
