"We thought we were going okay but the wood shed caught fire and then that fanned onto the house, and then it was all over red rover, I'm afraid," said Adelaide Hills resident Trevor Kerber. Bureau of Meteorology senior meteorologist Matt Collopy said ahead of Friday evening's change that winds had been recorded "up to 40-50 kilometres per hour, gusting around 80kph". Cudlee Creek fire continues to burn The CFS also downgraded the severity of the bushfire at Cudlee Creek in the Adelaide Hills, but firefighters said conditions were continually changing and the bushfire was still a threat.
