The Rural Fire Service has issued a severe fire danger rating and set a total fire ban for the Wingecarribee Shire.
The NSW Rural Fire Service advises you to:
- Action your Bushfire Survival Plan now.
- Monitor the fire and weather situation through your local radio station, www.rfs.nsw.gov.au and www.bom.gov.au.
- Call 000 (Triple Zero) in an emergency.
The Rural Fire Service advises that if you are in an area of Severe Fire Danger:
- If you plan to leave finalise your options and leave early on the day
- Only stay if your home is well prepared and you can actively defend it
- Prepare for the emotional, mental and physical impact of defending your property - if in doubt, leave.
Visit www.rfs.nsw.gov.au for information on preparing for bushfires.
If you see any fires which are not being attended to by firefighters call Triple Zero (000) immediately.
