most the traffic police had to come from freo but the areas pretty much cornered off now with 2 supervisors heading down there-be good to see some pics alot of people are being moved on from gawking as the helitact couldnt land to refill.

A command post at grove and richardson has been set up and are going onto another channel to run the op.

CFM Swan turning out to fire at swan depo ?

Can anyone tell me if there's a fire on the scarp or Swan area - can see thin smoke up here, it's obviously a little way away but can't even tell the direction. Could have blown in from the Chittering fire?

Thanks - my scanner is in our un-air-conditioned studio and I really don't want to go sit up there at the moment...

edit - Swan depot - could be City of Swan depot, Bishop Rd Middle Swan?
