Two communities in Victoria are facing a difficult situation as a bushfire rages on in the Grampians National Park. As firefighters tirelessly work to contain the blaze, residents have been advised to evacuate for their safety. This afternoon, an emergency warning was issued for the towns of Moyston and Pomonal due to the out-of-control fire near Yarram Gap Road.
Authorities have emphasized the importance of leaving immediately before conditions become too dangerous. They have also urged residents to stay updated on the situation by visiting the Victoria Emergency website for the latest updates on the bushfire. It has been made clear that emergency services may not be able to provide assistance to those who choose to stay behind.
The fire, which has been burning for a week now, is moving in a southerly direction towards Redman Road and Long Gully Road. The Country Fire Authority has warned that properties near the national park may be impacted within the next two hours, particularly south of the Pomonal 2024 fire area. With temperatures expected to reach 40 degrees today and on Boxing Day, residents in both Victoria and South Australia have been urged to remain vigilant.
The Grampians National Park has been greatly affected by the bushfire, causing significant loss in tourist money during the peak summer holiday season. To help combat the fire, a camp has been set up for emergency workers who have given up their Christmas to protect the community. In this challenging time, it is important for everyone to stay informed and take necessary precautions.
