An extreme fire danger has been declared for the regions due to “forecast hot and windy conditions”, the Rural Fire Service said. A fire ban will also be in place for the North Western and Northern Slopes regions of NSW, where it is forecast to reach 42C at Walgett and 39C in Tamworth and Gunnedah. The NSW Rural Fire Service advised residents to check their bush fire plan to ensure their property is ready. The authority also urged people to reconsider travelling through bushfire risk areas. Parts of South Australia and Victoria have experienced severe and dangerous fire conditions, fuelled by high temperatures and strong winds, over the last few days. But with a cool change coming through those areas, BOM meteorologist Dean Narramore said the heat was “returning to northern and eastern parts of NSW”. “We could even get into the low 40s for the western parts of Sydney,” he said.
