#ExtremeFireDanger was forecast for 5 districts on #Tuesday:
The south-west, the Wimmera, central, north central, & west & south Gippsland, with the remainder of the state with #highfiredanger.
Total fire bans in those 5 areas will be instituted from midnight.
Tuesday would bring “a classic fire spike day over Victoria” with temperatures “getting up into the mid-30s over much of the state, including Melbourne”. #weather #BushFire #Victoria #Prepare #ClimateCrisis

The #Tooperang #bushfire near #MountCompass south of #Adelaide has ripped through more than 600 hectares.
The #CFS says the fire remains #uncontrolled, & is being battled by hundreds of #firefighters.
It says the full extent of property damage will become apparent throughout the day, but there are reports of at least one structure being impacted. #auspol #SApol #ClimateCrisis

I can't imagine how people living in this triangle must be feeling right now 😢 Doesn't matter which way the wind blows it'll be smoky.
Data obtained from emergency.vic.gov.au 12:30pm 11/01/2026 AEDT stylised by me fire boundaries emphasised with thicker stroke for visibility and do not reflect actual fire boundaries.

I wonder why the firefighting aircraft are still focused on the north side of the Mt Lawson / Walwa fire while the fire front advanced over 20km to the south-east. Maybe the winds have shifted, or protecting property to the west towards Wodonga is a priority.
(green circles = aerial firefighting aircraft operating, large circle = C130 LAT operating, small circles = rotary-wing only)

This is really not looking good in Victoria. As at 7am there are four "Leave Immediately" and one "Take Shelter Now" zones. Three of those zones are west of Marysville, and north westerlies are expected.

2 #fires so far today in my area.
One, a #house on fire about 100 metres up the road from me.
The other a #bushfire about 200 metres from me.
I was taking a photo of the tomatoes when the #SES & 2 #fireengines with sirens screamed past.

Many other grass trees seen had put on leaf but died again, presumably because of the very dry conditions. -

"The logging industry is finding ways to get around the so-called ban."
"A loophole in the law banning Victoria's native timber harvesting means logging projects can still go ahead as the state government passes project approval responsibility to local councils."
"How could it be that a local council would have the expertise, the biological and ecological expertise, to approve logging in an area? When you log and regenerate an area of native forest … that same area of forest becomes much more flammable for a prolonged period of time," Professor Lindenmayer said. "I don't think that we should be adding that extra fire burden for rural and regional people to have to deal with."

Documentation of the systematic destruction of Tuckers Nob forests
"Presentation for Friends of Tuckers Nob on the history and significance of Tuckers Nob State Forest and why it must be included in the NSW Government's proposed 'Great' Koala National Park. Based on a recent preliminary report submitted to government, showing the original forest and koala sightings, with a list of moratorium areas (including Tuckers). All the most recent developments, bringing the viewer up to date. This is why we need a #GreaterKoalaPark, with no logging."
The video has a link to the report containing the results (maps) of the investigations by Dr Tim Cadman and local community-based citizen scientists:
