HIGH FIRE DANGER RATING- FIRE PERMITS SUSPENDED
SATURDAY 6TH DECEMBER, 2025
SNOWY MONARO LGA
Hot & windy weather will be with us again tomorrow (Saturday 6th December, 2025) and a HIGH Fire Danger Rating is in place. All Fire Permits are suspended during this time.
The Fire Behavior Index (FBI) will be 46, which is only a few points away from going into the EXTREME Rating, which is as high as we've seen this fire season to date.
Please continue refraining from undertaking any hot works/mowing or slashing in open areas, together with keeping hot vehicle exhausts away from areas of dry grasses, so no fires are unnecessarily started. Fires under these conditions will spread rapidly and be very difficult to control. Let's all do our bit in keeping our community safe!
