Bushfire Watch and Act
PREPARE TO LEAVE - SOUTH YUNA and YUNA

A Bushfire Watch and Act is in place for people bounded by Warr Road, north of Moonyoonooka Yuna Road, Yuna-Tenindewa Road, and Yuna Road, including the Yuna townsite in SOUTH YUNA and YUNA in the SHIRE OF CHAPMAN VALLEY.

There is a possible threat to lives and homes as a fire is burning in the area and conditions are changing.

WHAT TO DO
If your plan is to leave, leave now.

Take your emergency kit with you. It should include an AM/FM radio that runs off batteries, a first aid kit, a woollen blanket, phones, protective clothing, medication and irreplaceable valuables.

Decide where you will go and how you will get there. This could be with family or friends away from the fire.

Keep your doors and windows closed to keep out smoke.

Turn off evaporative air conditioners, but keep water running through the system if possible to prevent embers entering your home.

Move flammable materials such as doormats, wheelie bins and outdoor furniture away from your home.

If you plan to stay and defend ensure you are mentally and physically prepared, with protective clothing and an independent water supply. Make final preparations now and start patrolling your property to put out spot fires.
