Mt Buller Fire Update Part 3

Hi Members,

Caroline has given us another update on the situation at Mt Buller.

A fire near Merrijig yesterday burnt through 6km in under an hour. Craig’s Hut burnt down last night.
The southerly change came in at 11.00pm reducing the immediate danger to Mt Buller.
The rain came early this morning washing away the foam the brigade had sprayed out yesterday.
Two strike teams will stay on the mountain in case conditions turn around again.
Caroline has moved back into Merrijig Lodge but is keeping her possessions in bags in her car just in case.
All cars are housed in underground carparks around the mountain.
