Nothing beats a long weekend out under the stars, but have you checked to ensure you're in the clear to light a campfire? ⁣
⁣
Since 1 July 2024, authorities have responded to almost 250 incidents involving campfires, so it’s essential to follow the rules and do the right thing. ⁣
⁣
🔥 Plan ahead and check local weather conditions by downloading the bureauofmeteorology (BOM) app. ⁣
🔥 Download the vicemergency app for the latest advice and warnings.⁣
🔥 Always check if it's a Day of Total Fire Ban.⁣
🔥 Never leave a fire unattended.⁣
⁣
And if you weren’t aware, it’s an offence to light a campfire in parks or locations where they are not permitted. ⁣
⁣
In an emergency, or if you see smoke or fire, call Triple Zero (000) immediately. ⁣
