I know there has been discussion on this topic previously, but thought that this was interesting to see it in operation for real.

Bullsbrook - Lt4 - just up scaled to 3rd alarm. West Swan & water bombers (ch23) on the way. Gr Northan Hwy / Water Treatment plant

Lower Chittering Lt
Dm Darling Range

Before others reply, 6AR and 6IP are one in the same. Look into FESA links and you will find this. 6AR - mainly for FRS responding. 6ip for the volunteer brigades.

Always makes me nervous with this wind. Looking over the hill but no smoke sighted....yet. Thanks for the promt reply.

Anyone heard anything locally from Northam's turnout to reported grassfire?

Not sure but we got a call at 0630 for Bullsbrook 3:4 & 7:2 to go to this incident.

if anyone interested. Fire down south (south of Nannup) is possibly why water bombers not available

Kings park now classified as 3rd Alarm bushfire. Request for water bombers tuyrned down as resources located in country location. Belmont ICV now mobilsed

Seems like a fire in Kings park. Dalglish 1st reports "88 and going well"

Thanks g. Just heard our 7.2 (Bullsbrrok) turning out

Anyone with information regarding incident at "Mt Helena"? Alarm status? Units involved

Using Ch 34 as fire ground channel- a little worried with the strong winds. West Gidggie called for some heavies to knock it down and contain to established propety breaks
