Houses under threat, DM north coastal requesting 3 FRS

Parkerville and Darlington now attending.

DM north coastal said it is going to be a couple of days of fire fighting due to the size and how big it is.

Would help if they spelled Chedaring Road correctly. For anyone trying to correctly locate it.

The Bindoon fire jumped the containment lines, but we threw everything at it and nailed it within a hour. Pretty strong winds.
I dare say that it has a pretty high potential to jump again.

They are also still sending appliances to Wooroloo fire.
