It’s happening a lot this summer, but don’t get complacent, stay alert and aware of what’s happening around you in your area.

Timely decision-making can be crucial in saving lives. Please take this situation seriously and take necessary measures to protect yourself, your family and your community.

Revisit your bushfire survival plan and make sure the whole family knows what to do if a fire starts near you.

Stay informed through official emergency channels and the VicEmergency App.
