16.01.2022 Fire Danger Season dates announced for 12 of 15 SA districts 29/10/2020 The start and finish dates for the majority of the South Australian Fire Danger Districts have been announced today by the SA Country Fire Service.... The Mount Lofty Ranges, Adelaide Metropolitan and Kangaroo Island dates are yet to be confirmed and will be announced soon. Seasons will commence for the Eastern Eyre Peninsula, Flinders, North East Pastoral, North West Pastoral and West Coast this Sunday. CFS Chief Officer Mark Jones said that with recent rainfall many districts will be commencing restrictions on their traditional starting dates. "A milder start to the season than in previous years means we will see the commencement of the Fire Danger Season for many areas at a time that residents were traditionally more used to. "With no need for the starts to be brought in early, as in previous years, there should be no surprises for residents in these districts who have been preparing their properties," Mr Jones said. The Fire Danger Season commencement means restrictions in districts become legally enforceable. "Now is the perfect time to prepare for the oncoming season and update your Bushfire Survival Plan," Mr Jones said. A list of 'What can I do/What can't I do?' during the Fire Danger Season, and information on how to create a Bushfire Survival Plan, is available at cfs.sa.gov.au The confirmed seasons dates are as follows: Adelaide Metropolitan: To be announced Eastern Eyre Peninsula: 01 November 2020 until 15 April 2021 Flinders: 01 November 2020 until 15 April 2021 Kangaroo Island: To be announced Lower Eyre Peninsula: 15 November 2020 until 15 April 2021 Lower South East: 01 December until 30 April 2021 Mid North: 15 November 2020 until 30 April 2021 Mount Lofty Ranges: To be announced Murraylands: 15 November 2020 until 15 April 2021 North East Pastoral: 01 November 2020 until 31 March 2021 North West Pastoral: 01 November 2020 until 31 March 2021 Riverland: 15 November 2020 until 15 April 2021 Upper South East: 15 November 2020 until 15 April 2021 West Coast: 01 November 2020 until 15 April 2021 Yorke Peninsula: 15 November 2020 until 30 April 2021.

13.01.2022 Unfortunately we can’t turn the clocks forward two months, so you’re just going to have to slog out the rest of 2020. But one less thing you’ll need to worry a...bout is your smoke alarm working if, while you’ve got the ladder out (and using it safely), you change the batteries in your smoke alarm and give it quick test.
