Four useful starting points
MyFirePlan
NSW RFS online bushfire planning tool. Discuss your household’s leaving triggers, safer destination, routes and what to take before fire threatens.
Important: Leaving early is your safest choice. Do not wait for an official warning to decide when to leave. This tool is for planning, not incident warnings.
HazardWatch
Official interactive hazard-warning map. NSW SES links to HazardWatch for current flood, severe weather and tsunami warnings.
Important: Check the displayed hazard coverage, location, issue time and full warning. A blank map or no displayed warnings does not mean your location is safe.
NSW Rural Fire Service
Official NSW bushfire information, preparation resources and links to current incidents and fire danger ratings.
