BOM have issued a fire weather warning for the Wide Bay-Burnett, urging caution over the next few days in the face of warm, windy conditions (Photo: Malar-Booie RFB)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

September 24, 2020<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Fire Weather warning was issued by the Bureau of Meteorology on Thursday afternoon for the Darling Downs, Granite Belt, Maranoa and Warrego districts.<\/p>\n

A Severe Fire Danger has been predicted for these areas on Friday, with a Very High rating in place for the Wide Bay-Burnett.<\/p>\n

Meteorologist Kimba Wong said strengthening winds ahead of a trough approaching from the west – combined with a warm and very dry air mass – would lead to the heightened fire dangers.<\/p>\n

The fire risk was also expected to remain high across the weekend due to gusty winds which were expected to pick\u00a0up on Friday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ms Wong said Friday would be a warm day across south-east Queensland but temperatures were expected to drop on Saturday.<\/p>\n

A cold front would bring much cooler conditions to the south-east on Saturday with a noticeable wind chill.<\/p>\n

A late season frost was also possible about the Granite Belt on Sunday and Monday mornings.<\/p>\n

Temperatures will bounce back to about average next week.<\/p>\n
