  • Around 13:00 a large bush fire broke out in Heddon Greta outside of Kurri Kurri NSW. The first arriving appliance reported a large and fast spreading fire due to the winds and requested numerous other appliances.
    I managed to get on scene after 20 minutes of the Incident occurring. Here is my footage.

    Lighting ob:-
    NSW Fire & Rescue tenders specify a rear fog lamp. Have done since circa 1988 on the basis of occupational health & safety. The function, if on, offers up to 20 times the luminous intensity over standard taillights.
    RFS tenders should utilize same, for thick smoke/fog like conditions, strobes on high are cute n all, but an RF, lower than roof, will outperform them.
    The ADR is stupidly optional for all ADR categories.
    Use in seriously reduced visibility conditions only, OFF the moment things clear up.

      Yeh the wind was ferocious. There were multiple houses under threat and the fire was fully moving very fast. The longer I stood there the more trucks would come!

    Would you think for the Bushfire season it'd be like this?

    • @EmergencyNSW
      @EmergencyNSW  Před rokem

      I mean usually in winter the fires don't get too big. But on this day fire conditions were pretty perfect for one to rip, it was very windy as you could tell, and quite dry out too.
      plus almost certain this was deliberately lit, theres been a heap of suspicious fires in this area over the past months. So that would explain why it was big

    Pls listen guys! You understand how fires fuel them selves? You know how magnesium, or aluminium feeds it's self? Our lans have been dusted with aluminium, barium, strontium! This shit burns!!! It goes of especially in dust form! Be safe guys! Be ready!
