Fire danger in the western Top End
Dry and windy weather may cause severe fire danger ratings in parts of the western Top End on Tuesday.
A high pressure system centred over southern Australia will direct a surge of gusty winds across northern Australia on Tuesday. These conditions are likely to elevate fire danger ratings in the Northern Territoiry's Darwin and Adelaide River fire forecast area, where a fire weather warning has been issued.
These conditions are typical at this time of year, with bursts of gusty southeasterly winds common during the Top End's dry season.
