Weather Situation A high in the Great Australian Bight is directing a dry, moderate to fresh and gusty southeast flow over the northwest Top End. For Tuesday 27 August: Severe Fire Danger is forecast for the following fire forecast area: Darwin and Adelaide River Bushfires NT and NT Fire and Rescue Service advise you to: Action your Bushfire Survival Plan now. Monitor the fire and weather situation through your local radio station, www.securent.nt.gov.au, and www.bom.gov.au. Call 000 (Triple Zero) in an emergency. For information on preparing for bushfires go to www.secur source https://twitter.com/EWNAlerts Actually fires are a completely normal part of each and every dry season across the entire Top End and have been since the dawn of time. These warnings are more for extreme conditions promoting the spread of dangerous fires with a threat to life and property. It would in fact be quite abnormal to not see the dry season skies filled with smoke for much of the season prior to the first rains.
