Brassknocker fire trail Fire CONTAINED

The Brassknocker fire has been moved to contained status this morning. Crews attempted to access the site today, however conditions remain very wet and ground access is still limited.

We will continue to monitor the area over the coming days using both vehicle patrols and aircraft, and will provide further information as soon as it is safe for firefighters to access the fireground.

There is no threat to the community, and firefighter safety remains our priority. Thank you for your continued patience and support.

Storms on the afternoon of the 8th of January resulted in a number of lightning strikes, generally south and west of Timbillica. Crews successfully identified and contained two smaller fires, and further reports are being investigated this morning.

There are no reports of any threat to property at this stage, and we are working to ensure that all fires are kept as small as possible in these challenging conditions.

Smoke haze from fires further to our west is making it difficult to locate any new fires and there will be more information to follow as we get a clearer picture of the situation.
