bushfire season

Annual blaze time

Bushfire season is the time of year when conditions favor the outbreak and spread of wildfires, particularly in Australia.

The timing varies by region but typically spans the hotter, drier months when vegetation becomes fuel.

During bushfire season, authorities issue fire bans, communities prepare evacuation plans, and fire services remain on high alert: The 2019-2020 bushfire season was catastrophic.
