Quote does not work. I heard Bullsbrook on the radio.

Fire is in containment lines at the moment.

Remember folks, the quote function does not work in this forum.

Keep your posts to information which is relevant for people who use the forum to find out if their home is under threat. We don't want chat about mopping up, who got paged or not etc. Relevant, to the point and timely posts please. Other information can go to the General Fire Discussions thread.

A little late, but there has been a 3rd Alarm bush fire at Shepherds Bush Reserve in Kingsley.

Duncraig initially had it as a 2nd Alarm, but escalated with increasing fire activity.
Helitacs were also responded.

I believe the fire is now under control and de-mobilising.

2 x 3rd alarm fires last night and this morning in the Wanneroo / Joondalup area.

Scenic Dr ( Eastern side of Lake Joondalup ) was called 3rd alarm by Wangara at 1.00am this morning.

Most Wanneroo and Quinns Rock appliances turned out with other FRS brigades.

at 5am this morning a second fire began, Lake Side Dr (Western Side of Lake Joondalup).

2 Wanneroo BFB LT were mobilised from there sector (which was down the road, watching for ember attacks).

They called in a 3rd alarm...

busy day for Wanneroo.

will move post due to fires still active.
