MELBOURNE: (Sep 30) As the weather starts to warm in Australia, people are beginning to look ahead to the bushfire season.

The national Seasonal Bushfire Outlook, released in August by the Australasian Fire and Emergency Service Authorities Council, identifies areas where fire risk is expected to be higher than normal this spring, based on factors including weather, climate and fuels.

The council also emphasises that bushfires can occur in regions with a normal seasonal outlook, and that conditions can vary within these regions. All communities need to understand their local conditions and prepare early.
