SMOKE/HEAT HAZE ACROSS SNOWY MONARO LGA- TUESDAY 28TH JANUARY, 2025.
Like many people across the Snowy Monaro LGA today, we are seeing areas of smoke/heat haze, which looks quite intense in some areas.
We can confirm that as at 12.24hrs today, there are no active fires in the Snowy Monaro LGA.
It is not unusual for smoke to travel long distances (hundred's of kilometres) and combined with the current weather, seeing this is not unusual. It is likely that this smoke is coming from fires in Victoria, many hundreds of kilometres away.
The community can rest assured that we have no fires at this time, and ask that you only contact 000 if you see a column of smoke or flames.
