chidlow and rolystone have just been turned out to attend to lancelin fire, nice long drive ahead for those bridgades,be nice if fesa had something about this fire on their web page

[newbie]

Yeah I would have thought the FESA PR machine would be pumping something out by now, there seems to be a few fires popping up probably from last nights/todays lightning, I'm just trying to figure out if there is any active lightning cells going through there at the moment, seems to be some going through Bunbry/Dwellingup area

My house backs on to wanaroo road and there has been brigades from all over going up twords lancalin from about 8pm ish all going fire call so far i have counted 15 units that includes wanaroo 2xlt and 4.4

[newbie]

They have put up some info in the Lancelin fire... not that much though and would be now pretty out dated as usual.

Reminder: This thread is predominantly for third alarm and above bush fires however if it is a significant fire (ie threatening homes and businesses) that is at least second alarm then it will be acceptable. If it's not one of those things then post it in one of the other, more appropriate threads.

Please keep the posts to factual information - not rumour, hearsay, possibilities, theories etc. Also keep the information brief and to the point.

Thankyou for your cooperation.
