16:56 - Midland just reported 1st alarm - grass - extinguished using hose reel. Standing down and returning to station.

Tree fire in Helena Valley - Bassendean turning out to Zone 2 fire.

UPDATE: Air-Intel has given update to 6AR fire is close to Power Pole.

EDIT 17:01 - Darlington LT 2 - diverted to this fire in Helena Valley.

That's correct Chrisss - they stated a few Power pole fires but Bassendean have the fire under control at this stage with a few other crews. Darlington?

Just had a wander down to where Armadale 1st was called to in relation to a transformer blowing up. Western Power is on scene now and we had a nice orange glow from the transformer.
