About Victoria fire information
Official warnings for Victoria are issued by the Country Fire Authority and VicEmergency. Hipponics Firewatch brings those feeds together with national satellite and weather data on one fast map, and lets you set a watch zone around the places you care about so you are alerted early. It is a situational-awareness tool, not a replacement for official warnings.
