BoM said extreme fire danger is forecast due to increasingly hot and dry north to northwesterly winds which will lead to dangerous fire weather conditions.
Winds are predicted to pick up from early Tuesday morning and remain high gusting to 50kilometres at times.
The Rural Fire Service is advising everyone to
- Action your bushfire survival plan now
- Monitor the fire and weather situation through the local radio station, www.rfs.nsw.gov.au and www.bom.gov.au
- Call 000 (triple zero) in an emergency
The very dry conditions have already seen a number of grass fires occur in the Bega Valley.
The next update from BoM is expected at 5am Tuesday morning.
