A Bushfire Emergency Warning is in place for people north of Mogumber Road West and Orange Springs Road and south of Woodbine Road and Hunter Road in ORANGE SPRINGS, RED GULLY and REGANS FORD in the SHIRE OF GINGIN and SHIRE OF DANDARAGAN.

You are in danger and need to act immediately to survive. There is a threat to lives and homes.

Homes in the area are under threat by fire now.

WHAT TO DO

If the way is clear, leave now for a safer place. This may be with family or friends away from the area.

If it is safe to do so, leave in an northerly direction.

Do not wait and see, leaving at the last minute could put your life in danger.

Take your emergency kit with you.

If you become stuck in your car, park away from bushes, cover yourself with a woollen blanket, get onto the floor as the windows may break from the intense heat.

Close all doors and windows and turn off evaporative air conditioners but keep water running through the system if possible.

If you cannot leave, you need to get ready to shelter in your home.

You must shelter before the fire arrives, as the extreme heat will kill you before the flames reach you.

Go to a room in your home where you can shelter from the approaching fire.

The room should have running water, such as a kitchen or laundry, and have a clear exit so you can easily escape.

If you are not at home, it is too dangerous to return.
