CFA: Seasonal Bushfire Outlook Autumn 2026
The Outlook is the culmination of a complex analysis by expert fire specialists across Australia, and climate prediction and fire weather experts from the Bureau of Meteorology.
It identifies areas of increased risk of bushfire, in comparison to areas of usual risk of bushfire. It is not intended as a prediction of where and when bushfires will occur.
Even with the anticipated rains in the southeast in the short term, much more would be required to overcome the long-term moisture deficits.
AFAC Summary for Autumn in Victoria
▪ Long-term drought, as well as a dry and warm summer and autumn will reinforce severe dryness across Victoria.
▪ Increased bushfire risk is forecast across all of Victoria except for East Gippsland and the Mallee in autumn.
▪ Fire authorities will continue to monitor conditions for any changes in fire risk.
