A burned tractor stands amid dead trees after a wildfire destroyed the Kangaroo Valley Bush Retreat in Kangaroo Valley, New South Wales, Australia, January 23, 2020. REUTERSPIX: An intense spring heatwave sweeping across Australia’s southeast raised the risks of bushfires, prompting authorities on Tuesday to issue the first total fire ban in nearly three years for Sydney and shut down several schools.
Several regions have been given high fire danger ratings as authorities warned high winds could whip up bushfires and urged residents to minimise fire risks at their houses. Sydney is set to record five consecutive daytime maximum temperatures of more than 30°C in September, a new record, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.
