SA fire danger season brought forward
Fire danger season will begin early in at least five South Australian fire ban districts, the Country Fire Service says.
The Flinders, Mid North, Yorke Peninsula, Riverland and Murraylands districts have experienced dry winters, making for increased fire risk this summer.
In those districts, the danger season has been brought forward to begin two weeks early.
"We've already seen large fires interstate this year, so it's a timely warning to South Australians to prepare early ahead of this year's fire danger season," CFS deputy chief officer Andrew Stark said on Thursday.
