Firefighters in eastern Australia on Sunday rushed to prepare for ‘bad, if not worse’ conditions expected in the coming days after ferocious bushfires devastated communities Taree: Firefighters in eastern Australia on Sunday rushed to prepare for “bad, if not worse” conditions expected in the coming days after ferocious bushfires devastated communities. Wider swathes of the states — including outer Sydney — are now bracing for “dangerous” fire conditions predicted for the coming days, as is Western Australia state. “Under these conditions, these fires will spread quickly and will threaten homes and lives,” the NSW Rural Fire Service said in a statement. “These conditions will be as bad, if not worse, than those experienced on Friday as they will be across a much broader area including large population centres like Sydney.” NSW Rural Fire Service Commissioner Shane Fitzsimmons said dozens of additional fire crews would be sent out on Monday in an attempt to head off the potentially disastrous conditions.
