Media and the public are advised that TOTAL FIRE BANS have been declared for 26 November 2022 in the following Fire Ban Districts:

  • Eastern Eyre Peninsula - Extreme
  • Mid-North - Extreme
  • Yorke Peninsula - Extreme

Where Total Fire Bans have been declared, very hazardous fire weather conditions are predicted. The Total Fire Ban will apply for 24 hours from midnight tonight to midnight tomorrow. The CFS recommends implementing Bushfire Survival Plan.

Fire Danger Rating

If users don't have a plan to ensure survival, leaving early before a fire starts is the safest option

Where fire ban districts have an Extreme forecast fire danger rating, only well-prepared, well-constructed, and actively defended houses are likely to offer safety during a fire.

If users don't have a plan to ensure survival, leaving early before a fire starts is the safest option. In making a plan, users should be aware that in high fire danger conditions, essential services including mains-fed electricity and water supply may not be available due to the prevailing weather conditions.

Harvest codes of practice

Landowners are asked to adhere to local harvest codes of practice from their local council. Landowners are also invited to ensure that any burn-off activities conducted are fully extinguished before midnight tonight.

Agencies are advised to activate their Total Fire Ban procedures in preparation for these predicted fire weather conditions.
