Total Fire Ban declared for the Mallee tomorrow

Tomorrow's conditions in the Mallee will be warm with temperatures reaching the low 30's and winds of up to 35km/h.

State Duty Officer John Katakouzinos said the declaration of a TFB should act as a timely reminder that the summer season is fast approaching.

"Tomorrow's hot conditions could make it difficult for firefighters to supress a fire should one start, therefore we are asking people to take heed of the Total Fire Ban conditions," Mr Katakouzinos said.

"People need to be aware of the increased fire danger and ensure your fire plan covers all possible contingencies."

TFBs mean no fire can be lit in the open air or allowed to remain alight from 12.01am to 11.59pm on the day of the Total Fire Ban.
