Wonder if they will start pulling units that are not in the metro Area.

In a real indication of how serious this incident still is, It appears the ARFF are sending an appliance to assist in Roleystone.

According to sources, Geraldton, Bunbury, Northam & Albany FRS & VFRS appliances are en route to the fires burning in Roleystone.

Why has this been moved? When its directed to the fire @ Roleystone?

Please use this thread for general fire discussions. Please don't post non-critical information in the two Significant Fire threads. Use this one.

This is the thread for rumour, hearsay, possibilities, theories etc. Questions about what is going on, who is turning out, why someone isn't turning out etc should be done here.

Thankyou for your cooperation.

The Firey was a female. Her daughter says shes in a stable condition, has a crushed vertebrae and lots of bruising. Doctors are surprised shes alive as truck was full of water.
