22.01.2022 NSW Police are mourning the loss of one of their own. Senior Constable Kelly Foster, stationed in Lithgow, tragically lost her life yesterday whilst endeavouring to save a person in distress at Wollangambe Canyon at Mount Wilson. Both Kelly and the person she was trying to rescue did not survive. Our thoughts are with both families and Kelly’s colleagues during this sad time.

18.01.2022 Incident Call: 11.27pm. Last one for 2020. Pumper 105 and crew called to a grass fire in Kelso. Nothing was found and the crew returned just in time to bring in the New Year out the front of the Station.

18.01.2022 This long weekend, when you change your clocks, check your smoke alarm! Many smoke alarms installed before or in the couple of years since 2010 are now starting to reach the end of their life span and will need to be replaced if they are out of date. Don’t risk it, test it. Working smoke alarms help save lives.... #PreparedForAnything #ProtectTheIrreplaceable

17.01.2022 Heavy rains, winds and floods are expected to continue through the weekend. Help us, help you: Secure equipment that could be picked up by high winds Never enter or drive through floodwater, as you never know what dangers could be underneath. Stay up to date with emergency warnings via: https://www.ses.nsw.gov.au/... In an emergency dial Triple Zero (000) See more

17.01.2022 Have you changed your clock? How about the batteries in your smoke alarm? We have....have you? If you need help with your smoke alarm or you are unsure if it is out of date etc, send us a message and we will help you out. Stay safe!!! #105RETAINED #preparedforanything #daylightsavings

15.01.2022 Incident Call: 6.28pm. Kelso 105 Pumper and STP63 (Kelso Spare) responded to an MVA involving a Biosoil (Treated human waste) semi trailer, which whilst navigating a roundabout at Ashworth Dr, the trailer rolled onto its side spilling the (Smelly) contents onto the road. Crews got to work establishing there were no spills or environmental risks, and remained to assist while the trailer was removed. Contractors remain on-site removing excess spill and the road west bound remains closed. Diversions in place. Great work by Police, RMS, Ambulance, Essential Energy and local contactors. #105RETAINED #preparedforanything #smellysmellysmelly

13.01.2022 Thursday 1st October marks the start of the 2020/21 Bush Fire Danger Period for the Bathurst Regional Council area. During the Bush Fire Danger Period any person wishing to light a fire in the open will require a Fire Permit, including hazard reduction burns. A Fire Permit is required for burning activities during the Bush Fire Danger Period and helps to ensure fire is used safely, minimising the danger to you, your property, your neighbours and the community. Permits are free and can be obtained from your local permit issuing officer or the Chifley Fire Control Centre on 1300 258 737. Visit the FRNSW or RFS websites for great help and information in how to prepare your property.

12.01.2022 Last night P105 and STP63 (Kelso Spare) and 12 fire-fighters attended a joint training night with our mates at 216 Bathurst. The drill was run by Station Officer Sanders, and involved relay pumping. We use relay pumping between appliances to get the water where it is needed if no source is available nearby. The 4 Pumps worked together to get water to the attack pump and deliver multiple lines of water. Was a great night with a lot gained. #jointtraining #105retained #preparedforanything

12.01.2022 SEVERE TO EXTREME HEATWAVE - #NSW Increased fire danger ratings will be coming over the next week. Remember if you see a fire ring 000 immediately. An intense November heatwave is expected to affect large parts of the state for the last week of the month and persist into early December as a slow moving and very hot air mass pools over the region. ... Temperatures are expected to be more typical of a mid-summer heatwave rather than late spring, with the temperature expected to soar into the mid to high 40s across some inland areas over consecutive days. Western parts of NSW are expected to scorch, with towns such as #Bourke, #Wilcannia, #Walgett and #WhiteCliffs likely to see at least 5-6 consecutive days of 40+ temperatures and some locations possibly longer. Bourke may reach up to 46 on Sunday and Tuesday. Whilst some may think these temperatures over inland areas are typical, for this time of year they are very unusual (generally occurring in January and February), with only November 2009 and 2014 seeing similar heat. The slopes, ranges and eastern plains (#Dubbo, #Moree, #Tamworth etc) will feel the worst of the heat a little later, with the hottest airmass affecting these regions from the weekend and into early December, with temperatures into the high 30s and low to mid 40s. Further east will be spared the worst heat, with weak southerly changes preventing heat from persisting over consecutive days. #Sydney will see it’s hottest days this weekend reaching the mid 30s in the city, and up to 42 in the west. The hot airmass is expected to break down over the east of the country within the first week of December due to a cold front and an increase of moisture, showers and storms.

10.01.2022 Kelso 105 Pumper and Kelso Spare have been in attendance at this incident since 1am this morning, returning to station this afternoon, with another crew returning to Manildra tonight. Many central west stations in attendance. #preparedforanything #105RETAINED

10.01.2022 Retained Firefighters from all over the Central West have joined together to assist in the floods recovery in Port Macquarie and surrounds.....

07.01.2022 Very high fire danger for Bathurst and the Central Ranges. Remember, if you see a fire without a fire truck in attendance, call 000 immediately...stay cool!!! #105RETAINED #preparedforanything

06.01.2022 Severe storms are possible for our local area today with a chance of a supercell forming in the highlighted red area. If you need help in a storm event please dont hesitate to call the SES on 132 500 or in the event of an emergency call 000 immediately.

06.01.2022 Tonight, when you change your clocks, take a second to check your smoke alarm. It’s as simple as pressing a button. Don’t risk it, test it. If you have any concerns about your smoke alarms, send us a message and we will arrange a home fire safety visit and have a look. Stay safe!!!! - #frnsw #firerescue #PreparedForAnything
