If you live in an area near grasslands or farms you need
to be aware of grass fires. Recent rain has caused
widespread grass growth. As this dries out, the risk of
grassfires increases. Grass fires can start easily and
move quickly. Know your risk this bush fire season and
prepare early. Get prepared now at myfireplan.com.au

Bush fires can occur quickly and without warning. Before
you travel, make sure you have checked the conditions
and have a plan in place if things change. Let people
know your movements and if it’s not safe, avoid traveling
altogether. Always keep an eye out for emergency
vehicles and if you see a fire call triple Zero (000).

What will be your sign to leave? Is it when conditions
are dangerous, such as during catastrophic fire danger
days, or when there is smoke in your area? Don’t wait
until you can see flames before you make a decision. Stay
up to date with the latest bushfire information on the
RFS website, RFS social media, and Hazards Near Me.
