In this podcast, we report on the increased bushfire risk across Australia this summer despite recent rainfall. Fire authorities warn of higher danger in Western Australia, New South Wales, and Victoria due to dry conditions and warmer temperatures. Officials urge Australians to prepare survival plans, know evacuation centres, and support vulnerable community members. Even usually low-risk areas should remain vigilant. We also look into some practical tips to stay safe during the fire season.
