Homes are not built to withstand these fire conditions, however
they can be used as a shelter against heat from the fire. You may
lose power, water, phone and data connections. Fire crews are
responding but you should not expect a firefighter at your
door.
WHAT TO DO:
Check and follow your Bushfire Survival Plan. Protect yourself
from the fire's heat - put on protective clothing. Tell family and
friends of your plans.
IF YOU ARE LEAVING:
Leave now, don't delay. Roads may become blocked or access may
change. Smoke will reduce visibility. Secure your pets for travel.
If you become stuck in your car, park away from bushes, cover
yourself, get onto the floor as the windows may break from the
intense heat.
PREPARE TO DEFEND:
Identify a spot to shelter in, with more than one exit, keep
moving away from the heat of the fire. Bring pets inside and
restrain them. Move flammable materials such as doormats, wheelie
bins and outdoor furniture away from your house.
